Many of you have supported our "Chellbell" Ministry Items for years. We are so incredibly grateful for that support as we served in Nicaragua, Central America, and later, Italy. We are still running a small Etsy shop with bible covers, but due to the changing times and such a push away from paper products and towards electronic, it became necessary to look for work in other areas. Fortunately, about 4 years ago I started exploring the idea of teaching English as a Second Language online, and I'm glad that at that time I decided to do it as a 'back-up' plan. Now, with more than 3,000 classes under my belt, I can say it's been a fun learning experience! Recently they hired me as an interviewer for the company that I teach with, and it's been a privilege to help more than 50 friends get work with the same company! I want to reach out to you friends and followers. If anyone is interested in an online job due to the difficult situation that we're currently facing, please contact me. I am happy to share some insight and assist you in getting an online job.

Historic Memorial celebrated at home on April 7, 2020. We prepared the bread, spent an hour collecting wildflowers then arranged them, prettied up a table (and ourselves), helped last minute attendees to enter the meeting and settled into our own seats and connected by zoom. We had 6 of our students attend along with us and 119 for the West African Pidgin English group. 👏👏👏 Definitely one for the books! @ Brindisi, Italy

Adapting to new circumstances! We're still in Italy and we're currently on the 3rd week of house arrest 🤪. It's been challenging in many ways, however, Jehovah's people are quick to adapt to new circumstances and push forward. We've been able to conduct many Bible studies over the phone and Whatsapp, and of course have enjoyed the new provision for meetings over Zoom.

ROLLIN’ NICA STYLE.... in Italy! 🛵💨 Hello all! I know you haven’t heard from us in a while! We had planned a trip to Italy to check out the need in the English congregations, but due to the civil unrest in Nicaragua, we decided to move up our trip, and alas now we’re here, a few months later, finally settled in. A wonderful and generous brother lent us his scooter so we would have some “reliable” transportation to get back home quickly after service since we need to be at home by 11:15am to start work. It’s been such a blessing to have transportation in a town this big! But how could we possibly fulfill our assignment for Mobile Cart Witnessing when the Kingdom Hall is 2 miles away from the Central Park?? Where there’s a will, there’s a way! We’ve gotten a significant number of bewildered looks from those in neighboring congregations as the “crazy Nicas” are driving away... Apparently you can take me out of Nica, but you can’t take Nica out of me!

The best part of serving in another country is the family we gain. We know the struggles of being far from home, away from our loved ones, learning a new culture and language, and trying to figure out the transportation, paying bills, public markets, and the list goes on. These amazing people are our rock when times are tough, when we need a shoulder to cry on, or a partner willing to get muddy feet. We love you, for being our family away from family. Serving shoulder to shoulder, you’ve continued to show is that Jehovah’s hand is never short when we push ourselves out of our comfort zone.

What goes into regularly feeding the Nicaragua based SKE school students? Enlisting the help of and training volunteers, menu & recipe preparation, translating said recipes and menus into Spanish. Teaching recipes to 4 different head cooks, taste testing (my favorite part! 😉), cleaning, organizing, and maintaining an industrial size kitchen, cool rooms, dining rooms and food storage areas. Planning & preforming food prep, sometimes days in advance so that it lessens the load for the next days' volunteer crew, a rediculous amount of admin work, orders, purchasing, and pick up. Aaaaaaannnnd........... then there's working in Nicaragua in a non air conditioned kitchen with ovens, deep fryers, and grills on high. It can at times seriously feel like you're working in 100°f.... (good thing there's a walk in refrigerator you can stand in to cool off haha!) These hard working volunteers are incredible, selfless, and they love Jehovah so much that even through the discomfort, stress, and intense pressure, they keep coming back. I am so privileged and happy to work shoulder-to-shoulder with them (and it definitely helps to see happy students who love the food!) 😉😆🍝🍔🍱😍🍲🍛🍡 A special thank you to Jenny Dorsey & Karin Mann. I don't know what we would have done without you! May Jehovah bless you with 100 extra years of everlasting life! 😉 😘💕💗

Have you ever been scheduled to give the same talk twice..... in the same day? At the same place? At the same time?? In different languages?! At times I've seen some crazy juggling happen during meetings due to the lack of qualified brothers in Nicaragua. I've even seen brothers give the same outgoing talk 2 or 3 times in one day..... But I've never seen someone asked to be in two places at once! 😂 He was assigned the 'Treasures from God's Word' part last night in our English Group AND in our Spanish host congregation's meeting.... at the same time! To make this happen, the English group (which meets in the 2nd school) switched parts and started the meeting off with 'Spiritual Gems' while Miguel gave his 'Treasures' part in Spanish. Then he ran off the stage and swapped his Spanish bible for his English one and ducked into the 2nd school where they were just introducing the same part.... He walked straight to the podium, turned to look at our eager faces and when he started speaking, Spanish came out instead of English! It took him a second to realize that he was speaking the wrong language. 😂😂😂😂 My poor confused hubby! We all had a good laugh and he regained his composure and finished his talk in English.

December 31st will go down in Nicaraguan history as a memorable day! It was announced at our meeting tonight that San Marcos English group will become a congregation starting February 2016! All the hard work from many friends over the last 2+ years has paid off. We are so excited to be part of this new congregation shouting praise to Jehovah's name in the English field in .
