We are back...

FINALLY, we are back on line. What a time it was not having internet. We sure get spoiled with having these modern things in our lives, don't we? Through these 6 plus weeks of not having internet we have felt so cut off from the world, but now are back in communication with everyone. Although we did have a few days where we could get on, thanks to the loan of a modem, we were without email, or internet for so long.

We have a team here now. Talk about HARD work. They put rafters and a roof on a school building. From start to finish it took 3 days. I can't believe how quickly and efficiently they work. These are a great group of people who come each year. What fun we have with them, too. God has blessed us so much with this group. They all work like a well oiled and
running machine. It is wonderful. Today is a day of rest and some shopping and swimming. I'm sure they will enjoy that, but they also deserve it, BIG TIME.

While in town one day (we always take the camera), we got a shot that brought to mind how fishermen in Jesus time worked. I thought I'd share it with you, so you can see that
yes, we are a bit behind times here, but still find ways to work and feed families.We see these things occasionally, but never cease to stop and compare things to Jesus time and how they lived then. Throwing the nets out and bringing in the fish...just as Jesus told us to be fishers of men.

For now, PRAISE GOD for His mercy and love and for being with us. My next blog will share something from our mission in the US. The president sent a letter to our supporters and it included things I never really thought of before.

Let the Lord lead you today in all you do. Praise Him for His loving kindness!!!
