House Work

March 29th, 2007 | By Vas and Joni living in Mexico | More from Vas and Joni

Vas: Now our house is starting to look nice, though there is still a bit of work left which we will be getting to when we can but it’s comfortable and clean. The two main projects left, after the pool of course, which should be up and running in a couple of days, are the [...]

Free hugs

Free hugs

A while ago this “free hugs” video clip started making the rounds in cyberspace, and apparently has become quite the fad! I love the idea and think everyone should carry around one of those signs. It’s a great way to get to know people, pass out tracts… and just have fun! We haven’t done it [...]

Starting up again

Starting up again

March 26th, 2007 | By Vas and Joni living in Mexico | More from Vas and Joni

Vas: We are about to start our first Bible study in our new home and we have a couple of people who are going to attend it so I hope it will grow. I’ll let you know how it goes. It will take place tomorrow at 4 pm and it will be just to explain [...]

Finally!

Finally!

Joni: Lack of posts = lack of Internet. Yes, we’ve been “out of touch with the world” for the last couple of weeks due to moving and then waiting on the phone company to get us hooked up to the Internet in our new location. You just don’t realize how dependent you are on all [...]

Exercise

Exercise

March 22nd, 2007 | By Sara and Vincent living in India | More from Sara and Vincent

So we are having somewhat of an exercise revolution we are. In fact, not just us, but members of The Family International all around the world are probably evaluating their health and exercise habits, making new ones, etc. This area of our lives is being stressed more and more importance is [...]

Some vacation time

Some vacation time

March 20th, 2007 | By Sara and Vincent living in India | More from Sara and Vincent

Vacation this year was exceptional, and a beautiful time of relaxation, bonding, and family time. Someone asked me the other day what the highlight of my vacation was, and I had to admit that it was definitely seeing Kaila having so much fun in the pool and at the beach. I know that [...]

Water park fun

Water park fun

March 18th, 2007 | By Flo living in Mexico | More from Flo

In celebration of James’ 6th birthday he was allowed his first mohawk haircut (now I want my kid to be born so I can do the same thing to him!!!) and 4 local homes got free tickets to a day of fellowship at the water park.
My massive belly and I spent most of the time [...]

The cycle of God’s will

The cycle of God’s will

March 16th, 2007 | By Nyx living in Philippines | More from Nyx

Sometimes the way the Lord speaks to us about certain things is in different ways that catch our personal attention. I have been praying about my spiritual life recently, and admittedly getting a bit discouraged that I haven’t been able to do as much “real” mission work as I used to on other fields, as [...]

March 14th, 2007

Thanks for reading about life in The Family International here at LivetheCreed. This is a small slice of the daily pie of a Family missionary’s life. Our reason for existence: Jesus’ command in Mark 16:15 to “Go into all the world and preach the Gospel”. Along the way, He fills our lives with happiness and [...]

High stakes

High stakes

March 14th, 2007 | By Flo living in Mexico | More from Flo

Well, life ain’t always easy, is it? We recently had a nasty bout of the endless flu, different projects and endeavors of ours are in the up-in-the-air stage, and I find it particularly not-fun to be struggling to pay the bills. It just doesn’t feel very “idealistic”. But He never said it would be easy, [...]
