     It has been a busy week here in Tenerife.  When I look back, I’m not sure what we did, but we were sure busy!  Let’s see, Monday was P-day, it was gloomy and rainy so we cleaned house did laundry and ironed, and ironed!  You really have to appreciate what a blessing dryers are!  [...]

Nancy Andrews | January 18, 2010

   January 16th 2010, Saturday was Wascar’s baptism.  It has been wonderful to see how learning about our Heavenly Father’s plan and accepting a new way of life has brought so much happiness and light into his life.  He still is dealing with some tremendous challenges, but he is so happy in spite of them all.  It was [...]

District Meeting, Puerto De La Cruz

Nancy Andrews | November 24, 2009

This week we had our district meeting at Puerto De La Cruz.  It is a very interesting church building.  The whole place is surrounded by a very picturesque  stone wall.  You would never see the church at all until the gate is opened, and then you drive up a long lush drive.  My batteries ran [...]
