This past week we had an opportunity to host a missionary family from Trinidad. They spoke at our church last Wednesday and spent Wednesday night and much of Thursday with us before heading to Vassar, Michigan. The family was made up of the parents and four children, ranging in age from ten to sixteen. They were a joy to have because the children were very polite, respectful, and fun to be around. After the Wednesday night service we pulled out a board game, which the children enjoyed playing. It was getting close to eleven o'clock at night and they wanted to play another game. Having them stay at our home was a very positive experience because of the way we could see they were training their children.
The Manswell family who are missionaries to Trinidad.
Apparently, mother heads up the music department at the Caribbean Nazarene College and also home schools her children. Each family member plays a musical instrument and sings which they performed at our church. As an example of their high goals, the oldest son has for some time had the goal of becoming a neurosurgeon with Ben Carson being his role model.
We've always enjoyed keeping missionaries, members of singing groups, and other traveling groups or individuals and have been immensely blessed as a result. We are sure that sometimes we have entertained angels.
Blessings and Encouragement,
Paul, Gail, Patsy, and Penny
