Life in The Family International

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. We asked them for their help as they have a lot of good ideas and a very fun, upbeat presentation. We played some songs with our band and then they took over with an awesome class on being faithful to spend time with the Lord and also about being faithful to the commitment to attend our weekly studies so that they are sure to be fed spiritually.

After that ended came a long awaited pajama party/sleep over for my kids. Another young missionary couple lives close by and they have 3 children, around the same age as ours, so we planned for them to come over and have a movie, special snack and fun day tomorrow all together. The kids were enjoying their movie and each other’s company when we heard that it was the birthday of one of our fellow missionaries in the other home and that one of our friends who manages a nice restaurant here was throwing a little birthday party after hours at his restaurant and we were invited! One of my dear friends here offered to help the kids settle down after the movie was over to free us up to go. We had a great time, the restaurant was beautiful and our friend set before us a feast! We told jokes, laughed and enjoyed ourselves immensely. It was a long day, but a great one!
