On Tuesday Teaching: Day 4 of the IPG on Hilltop, Tacoma

IPG clutter.

This is a map of the designated area of the Hilltop neighborhood in Tacoma where, through a process of consultation, the decision was made to concentrate our efforts for our Intensive Program of Growth. Each numbered section marked off constitutes an assignment for a teaching team to cover.

+

Each section has a folder carried by a member of the team to keep the records of the attempts to present the Message to the occupants of each house.
+
Chris and Debbie are consulting on team assignments and sizing up the materials.

As a resident of the Hilltop, Toby provided his home as the home base for the teams to operate from. There are 21 people living in Toby's home, and, no, 21 is not a typo.

+

Teaching during the week means fewer teams going out, four today, as it depended on believers being able to get time off from work and other commitments, but the fire burned just as brightly as on the weekend when 18 teams went out over the two days.

+
Marion who has done direct teaching in decades past came out to support the effort, here studying up on Anna's Presentation in preparation.
+
Like the game Martha was holding, we are "together."
+
It was serious warm-coat weather, cold and rainy at times.
+
Our Auxiliary Board Member for Propagation Mauricio is one of the best teachers, whether in English or Spanish, and one of the most humble.

Out the door Debbie went for a follow-up visit to the new believer who declared Saturday night. And after that, she had an evening Ruhi 1 study circle to go to that she is tutoring. What a servant of Baha'u'lah! This is what members of the Baha'i religion do to raise up the Kingdom of God on earth. -gw
