Among the many things within Jehovah’s organization that are
impressive, one thing that has always stood out to me is how productive it is
all around the world – all at the same time. For example, when I was in pioneer
school, it was so encouraging and so much fun to be taking part in a school,
receiving such a profound education. It required a lot of planning and
organization among the brothers, among the circuit, among the district, etc.
for it to run smoothly. However, during the same time period, our Assembly Hall
in Aurora was being built. And, on the same note, that required even more
planning on a national level. I remember thinking how amazing it was that this
was all taking place at the same time around the world.
Well now being on the other side of the world, literally,
I’ve gotten to experience another outstanding aspect of Jehovah’s organization
– helping at the construction site in El Alto for the Aymara Remote Translation
Office. Here in Bolivia there are two main native dialects: Quechua and Aymara. And the people who natively speak those
languages have a very hard time speaking Spanish – if at all.
Being on the project was so amazing because it will be a
very, very small branch. However, that doesn’t matter. All of the brothers and
sisters, whether they are helping full-time or as volunteers, see the
importance of this specific translation branch for the territory in Bolivia.
And so does Jehovah. Though the branch is being built and its purpose is for a
very small amount of people, it is still so important.
Thus, the amazing part to me, among many things, is that this is happening around the world! I’m obviously biased to the work being done here in Bolivia, but there are so many projects unanimously being done by Jehovah’s loving direction.
