This summer, Steve and Ruth Byrne moved to Fier, Albania to work as missionaries under the oversight of the Slicer Street congregation in Kennett, Missouri. Almost immediately, they began teaching WEI students.
In their report dated October 17, they wrote, “We are thankful this month to be able to share with you about the baptism on October 1st of Matilda Baha. She is one of the two young ladies from the nearby village of Xharrez who were Ruth’s first WEI students. “First-fruits are always a cause of joy, and Matilda’s good-heartedness has certainly generated great joyfulness among us here.
