International Convention - Friday, June 27

Today's theme:
"To You Is Granted to Understand the Sacred Secrets of the Kingdom"

What a wonderful gift we received. Time to put it to use!!
Our dear Br. John Kovou sent this picture of the brothers preparing the Stadium for our Convention. It was spotless! Efharisto!! (Thank-you in Greek)
Craig and I with Janeeta - only pic with me in heels, these came off about 15 minutes later!!

Janeeta and her sister Rozeena - beautiful women, inside and out!

The Olympic Stadium

Had to snap a picture of our Korean friends in their Traditional Clothing - Beautiful!!

Check out the Kingdom Hall Construction Program in Greece

Met a sister from Albania during Intermission

And a sister from South Africa named Mary

And 2 more Korean friends - I just love their bright colors, and look at the little head covering!! Anyung Haseo!! (Good Morning in Korean)

From Albania - She was so cute

And check out the head covering on these brothers! I had to jump into their picture :)

Our brother Stavros, who sat in the row in front of us and shared with us the effect of the Greek economic crisis on the brothers there. The lack of jobs is making life hard but they are learning endurance and reliance on Jehovah. Mom Stanley gave him her Bible since they do not yet have it in Greek and he said it was "the best gift" he could ever get!

Friday was extremely hot and about 3pm during the drama, we had to get up and look for shade. We had to put together a game plan to find a shadier area for the remaining two days!
