Today is the last full day of the Addfest! Friendships are blossoming, and maybe even more…
One of my highlights was setting up our little booth with CD’s, T shirts, posters, hand bands, and more that the teens could buy from us. It was just so cute to see them all excited about [...]
Just got back from a theater play which we were able to take 32 kids with cancer and their parents to. Fun, fun!
As a lover of the arts, I’m always looking out for where the next exhibition or play might be staged, and I’ve been trying to make an effort to raise the kids’ awareness [...]
Vas: Ok, so after the camp we took a two hour trip back to Bombay and the bus driver must have had some extra chai that day (I don’t remember how it was spelled, but it’s strong tea, especially if you get it from the bottom of the pot with buffallo milk). He was driving [...]
Day Three:
By today everyone is getting quite comfortable around each other, and with the rain that graces us every couple of hours with a friendly shower. Something that I thought was noteworthy, was our situation with the power cuts. (those of you who have lived here will know what I mean).
We would have all [...]
Christmas….ah yeah, it’s almost here…I told you before how in the Philippines, every one of the “ber” months is the season. Seems the festivities and decor aren’t as much this year tho….could be a result of the typhoon.

The ADDfest was a music festival/camp for the young people in The Family International who participated in the Activated Incentive Program (AIP) here in India! It was filled with music, classes, workshops, dance nights, rock concerts, sports, and lots of rain too! The 5 days in total were awesome, and Flo I think you [...]
Vas: Well, I have a confession. I am not a good blogger. Not that it’s a secret or unobvious to any of you… there, now that that’s off my chest, I got to meet Sara in india when Godfrey and myself went to help with the Addfest camp held outside of Bombay (Mumbai). It was [...]
Morning ever so fair, for the bags under my eyes I don’t care!
Up and about we were, Beth and I who were in charge of the many practical affairs of running a camp. Dani from Spain did a 2 hour presentation, a class about the Endtime and our part in it. I caught the [...]
Joni:Yes, Mike has every right to call us delinquent bloggers. Oh gosh, I’m gonna try to make up for that, yes I am! I’m going to sit Vas down in a chair and say “WRITE!” Actually, he’s been going non-stop for the last couple of weeks…first with being Mr. Mom for 5 days while I [...]
