Group to Congregation

Just before we arrived to Bolivia in the beginning of October, there was an announcement during a meeting of the congregation Sucre Sur, which is the congregation that the Villa Serrano Group belonged to, that Serrano is now it's own OFFICIAL CONGREGATION!

The first official day the new congregation would be in effect was November first.  Very exciting news and it's a privilege to be here during it.

These photos will show you some of the activities that have been taking place, as the new Congregation of Villa Serrano.

 No longer a group in an isolated territory. Now a congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses.

When we first arrived here.. the sign said "Lugar de Reuniones de los Testigos de Jehova" ... Jehovah's Witness Place of Meeting.

That was about to change.... hey look, some crazy gringo, robbing the sign

First congregation gathering at the Swiss girl's place. We danced to Bolivian traditional music.

Joel and I. Getting to work on the new sign.

Next. Putting up the signs. 

And the service group heading out to do campaign work...

We are now proud to have an official "Salon Del Reino" Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses !!
