Preparation for the Quito International Convention

The International Convention January 23-25 in Quito, is fast approaching.  This past weekend, many elders, pioneers and their mates who are host tour guides from our English Atuntaqui congregation went to Quito to get their final training.  It was an amazing dress rehearsal.  The bottom photo shows the local Quito congregations of publishers coming out to the main town square practicing their welcome for the delegates.  The tour guides are in red jackets.  They played the part of the arriving delegates.

Last night at dinner with the returning guides, we were told that the towns people came out and were wondering what was going on.  They thought Barak Obama or Brad Pitt had arrived!  The capital of Ecuador is in store for an enormous witness, all to Jehovah's praise!



Below are Jens & Kristin Kessling, pioneers and our WT conductor, at one their designated tour route stops.  Here they're at the official "centre of the world" tourist spot.  It's the place where you're smack dab at the centre of the earth here in Ecuador.  They're Canadians from Winnipeg.  Been here some 4 years now.
