We saw the missionaries walking down the street, so gave them a ride to their destination. One is from Jamaica, and the other from St. Vincent. We invited them to breakfast on Saturday morning but they have a baptism scheduled so I slipped them $40 to buy lunch and told them we would see them at church on Sunday
Trace took me to the office, where he has been spending time almost every month for the last 3 years. His company, Global Medical Response, operates the emergency ambulance service by contract to the government. He always keeps three executives from the U.S. and then recruits and develops nationals to eventually take the leadership roles. Their headquarters building is as nice as any in the U.S. and shines in Trinidad. The public has come to really trust
GMR as the volume of calls has nearly doubled since they began in 2005.

WHat good lookin Elders. Little acts of service! Way to go.
I came over to say thanks so much for the sweet compliment (and I will be passing on your thanks to the Hubby), and found a refuge! Your blog has such a calm spirit about it. The picture, "22 and counting"-- beautiful. Have a great time in Trinidad!
I can't wait for my children to be missionaries. I hope they go somewhere small and humble. I think that is wonderful the people are so nice. But who wouldn't like you? Isn't it funny to think what an interesting life two little farm kids from Nyssa and Rupert have grown up to have?
How fun that you got to go with Trace this time! Have you ever been there before? It was fun to learn and see more about what Trace does. How long will you guys be there? It sounds like a lot of fun!
seriously- when will you be home? i also enjoyed learning more about the country and trace's job. i'm sure you made the missionaries day. can't wait to see you!
