Into All The World!
The Las Caobas congregation in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic is a well organized church with elders and
deacons. Children’s classes were held for the first time in the second floor of the building. The second floor was
built with the help of several congregations in the US including Jane’s home congregation in Wausau, WI. They
were meeting outside the building, weather permitting, before this. You should hear these children singing!!!

The Miramonte congregation in San Salvador appointed 3 elders for the
first time Sunday Sep 4. Bob Young helped with the induction ceremonies. He, Juan Meza, Cynthia and I had been working with them for a
good while. Two new elders were appointed at the Aviacion congregation
in Torreon in August. One of their original elders transferred to Richmond, Virginia. This well organized congregation is growing and helping
establish several new congregations in the area. Jose Tomas, Pedro and
Alberto will be in Cali, Colombia later this month for the final preparations to establish 3 elders there.
