(Next page) • Dan Fuller, an elder from Palm Beach Lakes church of Christ, sat down and visited with two of our men who are eligible to become elders. The purpose was to encourage them and provide an opportunity to ask questions in order to learn what is required from someone who is serving in that capacity. The men received it well and we have scheduled another visit with an elder from the USA in August. • The women are organizing and coordinating their upcoming “Ladies Day” event in July. Recent conversions/identifications/restorations: • This month there were no additions to the Lord's church in Paraguay. We continue to plant the seed, we are conducting many Bible studies, and we pray. We know that God will again provide the increase according to His own time frame.
