Surprise!!! Here it is, Saturday night already and the McKenzies are here with us for a couple of days. We checked out Medical facilities in May Pen and renewed a lease for the Elders apartment and inspected the Sisters apartment. What a great bunch of missionaries we have here. They are truly focused on helping the people of Jamaica come unto Jesus Christ. This afternoon we went to the Old Harbour fish market and bought 3 nice lobsters for $20 US, $1500 Jamaican. Tomorrow we are attending church here at the Old Harbour Branch, Monday we are rounding up junk at the missionaries apartments so they can clean out and organize. Tuesday Elder McKenzie and I are attending a "Religion and Crime Prevention" that is being sponsored by the Seventh Day Adventists.
Hopefully we will be able to make a short presentation. Well the part you are most excited about has arrived. PICTURES......

Marijuana is illegal in Jamaica-but it is everywhere?? Here is a small bakery on the coast near Negril that has a great variety of baked good that contain Ganja.

This is Ackee Fruit. It grows on a tree and it the main ingredient in the national food, Ackee and Salt Fish.
As it ripens, it pops open and exposes its black seeds. The seeds and unripened fruit are quite poisonous.

                                               Sister Freeman (Jamaica) left and Sister Terpend (South Africa) right.                                                          These fine Sisters have chosen to serve those that they are teaching by making personalized Christmas cards for all of their FRIENDS here in Old Harbour. 

                       These fine fellows were so attentive to the missionary message I was bringing to them.                                                                     What is the message, you may ask.                                                                        "Which one of you wants to be a part of our Missionary Christmas Party?"
                 We are considering roasting a pig in the ground, wrapped in banana leaves, for our dinner.

                    One of the Sisters' Apartments has, as they call it, ..A STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN.
             Really, the stairway just ends at the ceiling. There isn't even a second floor in this home.
