Another interesting week for us. We went to immigration at the international airport here in Vieux Fort to get our internaltional drivers licences, that finally came, validated. Shortly after leaving the airport we had this terinble noise erupt in the front of the auto. Pulling off the side of the highway to see what was the matter discovered the plastic panel under the front of the auto had come loose except for two fasteners and dragging on the pavement, and tool supply is zilch. Standing there pondering what to do an auto going the opposite direction stopped, the driver asking if we needed help. We we happy to tell him we did. He looked the sitiuation over, retrived tools from the trunck of his auto, took care of the problem, and without almost giving us time to tell him 'thanks' he was on his way. We were leaving church last Sunday As we were leaving church last Sunday and the plastic panel under the left front fender fell free. So Thursday we were at the dealership in Castries having our auto survived and put back together. We enjoy going with the elders as they teach. A sister named Selna is caring for three disabled brothers plus two grandchildren that have health problems. At present she attends her church at 6:00 a.m. then comes to the true church at 10:00 a.m. With all her family obligations she has been diligent in reading the material the elders ask of her. We have high hopes for her. Last Sunday evening we climbed this monstrous hill to teach Wendell. But it was worth it as we had a good discussion. On Wednesday of last week Wendell had an accident at work badly breaking his arm and extensive damage to a thumb. We hope he doesn't take this as a bad omen for listening to the elders. From his home there is a million dollar view of the ocean and the surrounding country side. We then drive to the William home on the sea shore. So in less than ten minutes two different settings-completely different but equally beautiful. Love, DaveMonday we were invited to the William home and they took us and the elders for a beautiful nice long hike along the beach, over rocks, wilderness, swamp, the road and for miles we hiked. It was a wonderful day and I think we walked about 5-6 miles but seemed more like 10. The areas we were in were something to see and we could of never found where to go with out the family showing us. I rained most of the day, but remains warm and so is quite nice however it is no beauty contest if you could see me. They packed some breadfruit and soared ? fish to barbecue for lunch but the rain made it too hard to start a fire so we came back to their house to cook the food. It took us so long that the elders had to get back to their apt to clean and get their wash done so we had to pass up that opportunity. But it was a fun day.This week we have enjoyed going with the elders again. We go to places and see things we would never see if we were not with them. Homes so very humble and streets so very interesting. They do give a good lesson and always impress us. One lesson they gave this week was about the temple and was a film. It was a beautiful presentation and made us think of experiences we have had at the temple. Part of the presentation was Jeffrey Holland talking about heaven. He said if he was to go to heaven and his wife and his children were not there that would not be heaven for him. You know how humble he is and he said that with a tear in his eye. It touched me very much and I have the same feelings --If I should ever make it to heaven and Dave and my children and my grandchildren were not there- then that would not be heaven for me. We are blessed to have wonderful choice experiences here serving this mission. As I say each day is a wonderful adventure.It is hot, humid and wonderful here in St Lucia Love, DoraElder and Sister FauxMartha's Tyre Service # 8La TourneySt Jude's HighwayVieux Fort, St Lucia, West IndiesHome 758-454-7219 Cell 758-384-5487 doraanddavefaux.blogspot.com
