Our school this past Wednesday as we were distributing food for the students had a teacher parade where we had on the vehicles that we missed the students and signs  .  We stayed in the vehicles ,  the outcome was successful.      All along the route there were students (large and small) with signs and waving.    We had a good turn out.   The point is with ALL the isolation it was good to see the students (from a distance).   It was a HUGE success and I (like you with our brothers and sisters in the faith) know that it can be emotionally encouraging, especially with the seniors.    But all would appreciate it, no doubt.    That is LOVE in ACTION along with our connection through letters, social media, texting and conference tie in for our christian meetings.    We hope that ALL you friends are doing okay.

That's a great idea! We could recruit a couple more younger couples and all stay in our own vehicles to make a 'parade' out of it!

Isaiah 30:15 has been shared a lot recently. 

 

"Your strength will be in keeping calm and showing trust.”

 

It would make a good year text in 2021...👍🏻

We discussed Proverbs 12:25 " Anxiety in a man's heart weighs it down, But a good word cheers it up." At our pre-Ministry Zoom group on Saturday Morning before starting our emails and texts to calls/relatives/workmates/schoolmates  to ask how they are and hope they are well, say something about how we are and end with some encouragement to check out the positive news on the JW.org links we attached/inserted with the message.
