Porte Ouverte

After our return home, the Pointe Noire Branch held an open house to show off their new building. We had seen the enormous renovation of this building. It was hard to imagine how it would turn out. 

 

I was little nervous even walking in the building when it was under construction.  Tree limbs formed the ceiling supports and walls were mostly missing. But it turned out very well.

It's a very good building and our members are happy to meet there and were very excited to show it off to friends, neighbors and community leaders.  

It was pretty amazing to me how good it looked when they finished.  

The stand and the pulpit looked like something directly from the US.

When it was time to start there were only a couple of people there and they were so sad and worried, just like we all are when we hold an event, but 20 minutes later, they had a full house. 

  

 

Congratulations to the Pointe Noire Branch for implementing well a great missionary tool- the Open House.
