    Did his wife serve in La Vega? We had three swedish single sisters living near our miss-home.

    Don't know, could be. They were reg pioneers and went where it was warm half the year to pioneer. There were a bunch of them but was only close to two of them.

    Hey fulano

    Did you happen to know a David van Brug and his wife Luana? They were in the DR and also in the US Bethel for some time, I forget the years, 90's and early 2000's maybe. They were also in Zambia.

    After reading this, no wonder they repurposed Gilead.

    Wow, this is an amazing thread and it really shows how cruel and unconcerned the religion/organization is about the welfare of any of the members.

    People were on their own - literally. Imagine being stranded in the boondocks in a third world country?? I admire these missionaries and most are lucky they came home.

    i don't know when you wrote this but No I don't know them. Maybe they were Needgreaters at some time we had a thousand of them. Strange enough ;) all in the beach congregations.

    A pleasant reminder of what discussions on this board (and its predecessor) used to be like, before we all started squabbling amongst ourselves!

    Yes. The times I visit this site is just reading...about golden watches and expensive suits.

    Strange enough :wink: all in the beach congregations.

    Were they "Surfing Where The Need Is Greater?"
