Ann with the Prime Minister of Grenada, Tillman Thomas

When Mike was in Australia with his Mum a few weeks ago, Ann spoke at the official opening in Grenada and  met with the Prime Minister. He comes from the same region in the north of the Island and knew several of  Ann's relations. We thank God for the opportunity to have been in Grenada. We spoke at two marriage Seminar on shore in Grenada. It was helpful to listen to young couples explain their need for mentors as they seek to grow in relationship together.
