Christmas outreach

Yesterday was our Children Church’s Christmas outreach, praise the Lord it went really well. About 200 kids came and we had a lot of fun with a clown, singing, dancing, and a sketch about the real meaning of Christmas. The kids did a great job, everyone remembered their lines and no one seem too nervous. At the end I gave a short message about the best present anyone can receive is the gift God sent us, His son. 30 plus kids came forward to give their lives to Christ, PTL! At the end we gave out snacks and a small present to everyone. The kids left in great spirits including all the children’s workers which is always a plus as these things can be very exhausting. Well, if I don’t get to write before, have a very wonderful Christmas!!!!

Christmas caroling


On Friday, Josh had his last day of FES (Field Education System). It’s put on by the Wycliffe mission and basically it’s where missionary kids from all over the country come together for two weeks of school (there are also sessions in August and May). Of course the kids love it and have a great time together. They’ve been doing a lot of Christmassy things the last couple of weeks and on the last day sang a bunch of carols for the parents as well as recite memory verses and other things. It was really nice and Josh had a blast. Now no more school till January :).

I'm back!!!

Yeah!!!! We're finally back online. We actually had Internet for over a week but been super busy. The Internet is still VERY slow but at least it's finally working. Lots has been happening this least month, hopefully I will be able to blog it all and put some photos on too. For one, my belly is a lot bigger, I've been feeling great, not tired at all, PTL! I'm in my last trimester now, March will be here before I know it.
My parents came in on Saturday for Christmas. It is soooo nice to see them and spend some time with them, the boys were so excited. They'll be here till the 27th, we're heading to the NW with them next week. They also bought a bunch of goodies for Christmas so it's going to be a good one this year with real Christmas pudding, lots of candy and even nuts:). I made bagels today for Christmas breakfast. Not very Christmasy I know but we love them and I don't get to make them that often so it is a real treat. Now we have to find for some cream cheese :). Well, I will write more this week and let you know what has been going on.
