Been home for a week. No more Jet lag… Been just spending time with the kids and reading lotsa Word.
The last five months all the 12-16 year olds have been part of a competition to see who could get the highest number of Activated subscriptions. I have been taking the teens out occasionally, and following [...]
The Luna Llena band has come to an end, it was getting good but I think it made our drummer uncomfortable to always hear us talking about Jesus and praying in Jesus’ name when he has more of a New Age mentality. What brought his decision to a head was during one of the many [...]
A car pulled up in our driveway with four guys in it, just minutes after finishing our daily breakfast/devotions time. I only recognized two of them well; one was a local rapper, and the other, a producer in the music/video industry of Uganda. It was good to see them again, but I was wondering what [...]
While out witnessing with Jere (see previous posts) on Tuesday we passed by a man on the street who sells old magazines, books, records and the like, assorted stuff strewn on the sidewalk. Here street vendors are a common sight. I would venture to say that with a little ingenuity and lots of hard work [...]
Joni writes: Today was our weekly Bible Study. Some new Family members have recently arrived in our city. They have been leading Bible studies and motivational meetings for a long time and are just very…professional at it.

I don’t know how interesting this will be for you, but it’s something important to me and so I’m posting it anyway. Thanks to the Lords unfailing suply I was able to get my kids, Mike and Larissa, an electric guitar and a keyboard, respectively. This has been one of my hearts’ desires for a [...]
Got up at 5:00 am which is not the usual—especially not on vacation (I’m more of a 6:30 kinda a girl). Spent like, two hours on a bus (where I unwittingly sat next to a drunk man who spilt his pop all over me… crazy things happen) and then some more time on the ‘Sky [...]
Vas writes: Every week we pick up produce and other food items from individual busineses who donate to our home. In exchange we spend some time with each of them, counseling spiritually or praying for them. One man named Leo was very desperate a couple weeks ago about his son who was having a drug [...]
