About Me

In October, 1997, my husband Mark and I, decided to move to Ecuador. We settled in Cuenca, the third largest city. It is nestled in a valley surrounded by the Andes Mountain range. It has been an amazing aventure.

Miss Donna Nicol in Cuenca

The last few weeks have been very busy. It seems like I don't have a minute to sit down and write. So, today I took the morning off and decided to drop a line.

Many of you remember my English study Donna. Brief recap, we studied together while she was recovering from surgery in Cuenca. Once she was fit enough to travel, she went back to Salinas (on the coast) and another sister continued the study. Donna was baptized at the English convention in July.

She is visiting Cuenca and yesterday we went out in the ministry together. This was our first opportunity to preach together and I must say it was such an encouraging morning. To actually see how a student has progressed and see them in action is a blessing. Donna is a preacing machine. She has no fear and her zeal for the truth is contagious. Even though she has not mastered the language, she has no problem expressing herself and the householder appreciates her sincerity. She still uses a neck brace, but her limitations do not impede her. We walked all morning in the territory and we actually started a study. And the most encouraging part, Donna told me that in Salinas she is conducting 6 bible studies. WOW!

This was indeed a good day.
