Bahamas

Jeff recently went and taught old testament for two weeks at a bible training center in Eleuthera, Bahamas through the Caribbean Ministries Association.

There were around 18 local church leaders who attended each night.  Most evenings, the class would break half way through and have a meal/fellowship.  Conch is a very popular dish there, which we ate in several forms and fashion (taste like chewy chicken).

Adeline and I joined Jeff for a week, thanks to some air miles and Grandpa and Grandma Larson who kept Anders.  It was a nice break, some good R&R, and some of the most beautiful water I have ever seen.

We also had a chance to spend some time with Ryan, Emily and their son Micah who are missionaries in Eleuthera and friends from our church here in Frisco.  They have been working with CMA for about 3 years, almost all of Micah's life.

Some fun facts about Eleuthera....1. it has some of the top rated beaches in the country. Though if you are a local you only go to the beach no more then 2 times a year (certain holidays), so unless there is a resort built on the beach most of the beaches have no one on them.

2. it has one of the smallest pieces of land that separates the Alantic from the Caribbean.  In the picture below the Caribbean is on the right and the tiny bit of darker blue on the left is the Atlantic.  We crossed this land marker several times in the training centers vehicle, "Mitzi" the Mitsubishi.
