More Visitors

We are often asked if we get lonely here in Tbilisi all by ourselves. We have to laugh - because we get a lot of wonderful visitors! This last weekend Uldis and Maya from Batumi (ok - he's from Latvia and she's from Indonisa) came to stay with us so she could apply for a visa. There is no Branch in Batumi so they really wanted to come for church. They are a delightful couple. We are playing a tough game of Mexican Trains using Reese's candy for markers. Every 3 months some missionaries have to leave their countries for a visa renewal. The Souths are serving in Moscow (they are our boss!) and she was from Georgia (in the US) and wanted to see Georgia here. We had fun showing them all around - but the wind was AWFUL - we were literally blown away!!!

It's a small world - especially in the church. The Loveridges have a son in Elk Grove and have been there many times. Susan and Brad are good friends with the son. Anyway, they are the new auditors for this area and they came to Georgia to audit the branch. Again we got to do some sightseeing and lots of walking. Ruben, the mission driver and good friend is sitting next to Sis. Reese. Back row Pres. Hovac, mission aditor, Alex L our branch financial person, and the Loveridges.


Our lives have truely been enriched by all the amazing people we have been able to associate with here in Georgia. I am alway surprised by the close bond I feel with them.

  1. Can you buy Reese's candy there, or is that from a stash that you brought?
