Stormy February

Hello Friends and Family,

Couldn't resist putting in this adorable picture of Logan and big brother Bryson. (Joseph & Tanna)

This little brother was a pleasant surprise for Bryson!

And here is our cute little Tre at 14 months old

"Secure your posts, here I come!" (Janice & Tracy)

Current Galway Six - Left to right - Gary and I, Elder Novotny, Elder, Shubin

kneeling - Elder Udell left, Elder Tarbet right, new convert, Bo Wen, in the center.

He was baptized January 10, in Limerick, located an hour away, we have 

no baptismal font here in Galway. He is a super nice young man and is here studying at the University.

These  two cuties are Sister Griffin and Sister Montoya 
from Limerick. They are oh so sweet and silly. We 
love them.

Nataide and Sarah Shafer over for Sunday dinner

Sister Montoya is from Mexico, her Spanish has come in handy as there is a growing number of Spanish speaking people from Mexico, Central and South America in Ireland. Most of them come to learn English. Nataide in the picture above is a member from Mexico and here to learn English. Nataide is such a lovely person and so cute too.

Our sweet Sister Weber on the right and her companion Sister 
Simmons on the left with their new convert, Jovanna. Cierra  is 
having a great experience and seems to be very busy. She says 
they see miracles all the time.

After District meeting we headed to McDonalds for lunch. It is always good craic (good fun) to be with the missionaries. They do keep us young. We marvel how hard they work even when it's pouring rain. A couple of Sunday's ago they rode their bikes to church, when they arrived they were soaked to the bone and dripping. But they are always upbeat and take the weather in stride. Each one is endearing with their little individual  quirks. We get quite a kick out of there antics.

We treat them like our grandkids and they like that. They love the hugs and huge meals we prepare for them too. 

The children seem to be quite involved and having a good ole time making a bigger mess.

There are the Matshazi children - Shiobhan, Shiloh, and Shaquel. Oliver Shafer, Ryan and Annie O'Toole.

                                     The Primary children are preparing for a puppet show. 

                                     Alexis in the above picture and Trisha are helping them 

                                     make paper mache puppet heads. Another week they 

                                     will paint the heads and make cloth bodies. It was a 

                                     fun project for them. 

Love you all

Gary and Karen Weber
