Puerto Morelos, Preaching and Kingdom Hall

Here is the finished Kingdom Hall...This is the day we said goodbye to all our friends on the RBC and the local brothers, since there is only a Spanish and Mayan congregation currently here.  We will be going to the next Kingdom Hall build and spending a week or so there to do the electrical again...it will be about 50 or so miles to it.  

From the stage looking at the audience...do you see we are in our usual spot...he he.   The brother behind us is in the Spanish Kingdom Hall. 

Larry, Lex and I are standing just outside the kingdom hall at the road just before the RBC brothers and sisters got on their way...the sister in pink next to me is Ezekiel's wife, she and her husband Ezekiel sat next to us at the first Mayan meeting we went to...then Ezekiel got up on stage and did a special needs talk letting the brothers know they reallllly needed help on the kingdom hall and it is not a time to be sleeping but a time to be working hard on their own kingdom hall,  the sister in the blue hat, and her husband in blue is part of the RBC, Rafielle is his name,  his wife works side by side with him and she works like a man...I was VERY impressed!! and she did everything!!! 

Here is the truck and trailer that the RBC uses for the hall builds,  in it there is everything you would need for construction...the RBC here just feeds only the RBC members appointed by Bethel,  we fended for ourselves for dinner at noon,  we just biked to the kingdom hall so we just biked home, had lunch and came back in an hour,  it was very easy. 

Looks like Rafielle likes the necklace!! 

Fernando, the brother next to Lex took us fishing the day before,  she accidentally left her necklace in his truck so he was trying to see what he could get for it,  Rafielle was seeing if he wanted it for his "esposa" or wife...Lex was fit to be tied!! (they were just teasing her) Rafielle is offering money and Lex wouldn't let him give it.  

I'm not sure what Rafielle is trying to get Larry to do but I'm sure he is saying "por que"...or  why?  

I'm not sure what Larry is doing but looks like he's got enough trying to stop him...lol 

This is Jerry and Debbie Waas, We worked in service with them today in Puerto Morelos,  they are from Wisconsin...it is almost a full moon behind them...this picture really doesnt do it justice...it was so beautiful.  

This is break out in service...right on the beach,  its tough but someones gotta do it...anyone want to join us here?  We would love to have you here!! 

This is a sister, Marisol, from the Spanish congregation in Puerto Morelos,  this is her booth/shop space,  we had just got a bathing suit for Lynn.  

This is the service group in the center square of the town,  there are some missing here,  they weren't back from the territory yet but we met some bros/sis from Montreal Canada and since you can always tell JW's they picked us out and had to get our picture...the bro in shorts is one of the ones not in service (just vacationing)
We had just been doing territory, kinda canvacing because the territory used to belong to Cancun, but since our cong just split it was given to our congregation (Playa Del Carmen Norte) and as of yet we haven't got the territory cards, so we have no record of where the english is...so we are searching...we found one lady who used to study, due to circumstances had to quit and is now ready to start back up again,  since she speaks only spanish all we could do was get her phone number and address and give it to the Spanish cong here is Puerto Morelos.
