Guesthouse Ministry


Fiona makes these Coffee Bag Bilems (bags) to sell at our guesthouse. If anyone would like me to bring one back for them, just let me know... or I can even mail one your way.. :)

Naomi D, Naomi S, and Lilli S play together almost every day! They have fun asking our guests children to join in too! :) Excited to have Linda with them today!


 

A lot of Friday nights, the kids get to invite 1 friend over to have dinner with us.... this is nice for them because they get to stay up later on Friday nights... and then the adults can enjoy some conversation while they enjoy playing!

Fiona, Georige and Rumbi, learning the computer side of the guesthouse work... recording the workers hours, email and reading the booking calendar.

I'm very thankful for these three ladies who do so much work around the guesthouse!
During their break time they like to play Skipbo!

A tree right outside the guesthouse was being cut down... thankful that it didn't fall on any of our orange trees.



All is quiet at the guesthouse "office". :)

A busy season with missionaries and citizen teachers at the guesthouse!

I love the excitement of our 10 year old!

Fresh Veggies and Old Friends from Interface

 

Sour sop, Papya, Cucumber Bananas, Cucumbers, Broccoli, Pineapple, Avocadoes and Bananas are just some of the produce we get at our local market weekly. :)



Piku, on the left, used to work at the Interface Kitchen many years ago. We went there to see Interface in December and then Piku and her daughter, Beth (named after me), came out to visit a while later. Beth is now 17 years old! I guess I have been here a long time! :)

2023 Begins Well

 

We have an almost full guesthouse and the kids are excited to have their friends over for dinner. 

Ready to walk to church... Grandma sent new clothes for birthdays and Christmas!

Fun with a Rock Painting kit that Naomi got for Christmas from Uncle Nate


More Rock fun!

Naomi has discovered clip on earrings she found some in the jewelry box Grandma gave her... and then her and her friend, Naomi, traded their clip on earrings with each other.

Naomi gave me these earrings for Christmas... I've never had long dangly earrings before but since Naomi gave them to me, I'm going to wear them!
