Joni: I’ve been going through one of those times where I feel disheartened about myself and the way I am. I’ve never felt so much that I haven’t really done anything very well. I know that sounds very negative but that’s the way I’ve felt recently. I think some of the intensity of the feelings […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]

Sweet thoughts of relaxation and vacation are now becoming reality and I can almost taste the salty air on the beaches of Goa. It’s midnight in the city of Bangalore, and well, the power is off- so we are all sweating and trying to finish up closing the house down and preparing for our […]
Our new years’ was closely followed by a trip to another part of Karnataka, called Coorg. What a brilliant place that was - greenery everywhere and fresh cold air. When you live in a big cosmopolitan city in India, you don’t get to see much of nature and much less breathe fresh clean […]
Vas: Well Christmas to me is a time to do what I should hopefully be doing all year round, which is to follow in the footsteps of the One who lived for others, always thinking of those in need whether the need is physical, spiritual or emotional. I know this is something that should not […]
What would you say was your most unusual place to have Christmas? Any interesting, weird or wonderful Christmas customs in your current field?
My first Mexican Christmas felt unusual, as it was my first Christmas in the northern hemisphere. It seemed so weird to be cold! Ha. It actually snowed in Monterrey on the 24th of […]
What does Christmas mean to you?
The frills of Christmas lost their appeal after a few really hectic seasons, so I decided I’d try to focus on love and smiles. So now I guess it means to me a time to maximize on the amount of love you can give. I like Christmases that are full […]
