Visiting ASL in Grand Rapids
By Jac | May 15, 2010
While in Michigan we took the opportunity to head out to Grand Rapids and visit Sarah and Isaac and their little sign language group. We got in Friday night and hit the ground running! Anton gave the talk Saturday morning, then we had the privilege to watch the ASL class’ graduation ceremony, and even speak and share photos from the DR with them. That night Anton and I cooked a huge Dominican feast – complete with about 15 platanos worth of tostones!
The group is growing – and now too big for the library, so they have set up their meetings in the lobby! It is quite a sight. They have a number of Bible students in attendance regularly, and seem to have a lot of support from the local congregation. They are a group of young, zealous pioneers, and a whole lot of fun to be around. We spent a nice long day in service with Sarah and Isaac and got to meet a couple of their RVs and studies.
Sarah and Isaac took us ice skating, got us sushi and thai food, and even arranged for us to go out wakeboarding! Being out on a boat in Michigan feels more like home to me than pretty much anything else! The water was freezing, but we had a blast anyways, and I even got to try and wakesurf!
