My baby is here!

April 30th, 2007 | By Flo living in Mexico | More from Flo

He came a few days late, but MY BABY IS HERE! He has all his little fingers and toes, is perfectly angelic when he sleeps and wicked when he cries. I donÂ’t want to get into the gross details of how the delivery went, but I do want to say that I was blessed with [...]

Goodbye Chris!

Goodbye Chris!

April 18th, 2007 | By Nyx living in Philippines | More from Nyx

One of our faithful SGA missionaries here in Manila, and a super-dedicated guy just moved fields–not quite out of the country, but just further down South. Christian will be missed here, but we all know he’s going on to bigger and better (!) things, and we pray the Lord will continue to keep Him happy [...]

We got a car!!!

We got a car!!!

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

It’s a miracle car, I tell you. Our team has been in a bit of flux lately and the inevitable winds of change found us borrowing someone’s car for an indefinite amount of time, even though the lender was needing it in a very definite period of time. Sooo, we needed a miracle. We got [...]

Jiutepec

Jiutepec

April 10th, 2007 | By Flo living in Mexico | More from Flo

Our little town of Jiutepec held a festival in celebration of “The family unit”. Our very awesome (yet very nervous) singing group was invited to participate, and so even though they had absolutely no idea what the event, stage, sound, or anything would be like they jumped at the opportunity with their whole hearts. Thankfully [...]

For a long time…

April 9th, 2007 | By Sara and Vincent living in India | More from Sara and Vincent

…I had been hoping to get my friends and acquaintances on a steady email program that would update them on our projects as well as send them some ‘feeding reading’. I had been doing it here and there, and it was quite sporadic. Daisy (a new member of our home who came from Romania) brought [...]

Walk a mile

Walk a mile

April 6th, 2007 | By Sara and Vincent living in India | More from Sara and Vincent

I was just sitting today thinking to myself ( ok so it’s my day off and I have some time to think!) about that old saying that was about ‘walking a mile in somebody’s shoes’. I remember the year before last when I had a newborn baby I would sometimes think how much easier the [...]

Give and Take

Give and Take

April 2nd, 2007 | By Sara and Vincent living in India | More from Sara and Vincent

It’s been a new learning experience for me to live in a situation with other families and children while also having my own. I guess I always did live with kids, but having my own now is quite a different story and life takes a different turn. We now have 3 toddlers at the age [...]
