We spent some time in May in the near by city of Rustavi. We went apartment hunting with 2 missionaries and quickly found 2 good missionary apartments. 2 sets of missionaries were moved in and the city of Rustavi was officially opened for the preaching of the gospel. This is really an exciting event. We spent a few more days there looking for a good Senior Missionary apartment and finally settled on one. On June 3rd the first Sacrament Meeting was held there and was attended by 6 missionaries! We had a great testimony meeting. They are called a 'group' and one of the missionaries is a 'group leader'. When the group gets big enough, they will rent a building and become a branch. It's amazing to be a part of history.
Very exciting! Rebecca
