Sunday Memories

Katie and Amber, IBM journeygirls studying Spanish in Antigua, visited Sunday. They worshipped at church with us and we enjoyed Sunday lunch together. (It was kinda like before we came to the field...every Sunday lunch we enjoyed food and fellowship with Deborah and Chris.) I think their two favorite things were the sweet tea and mashed potates. Katie is from the Huntsville, AL area where we lived for 4 years, Amber is most recently from outside Savannah, GA not far from where we lived the last 8 years before our move south. We have many links connecting us and it is fun to learn more about eachother each time we are together. They will be here only until the first of October before they head further south to Peru (Amber) and Colombia (Katie).



On the way to taking them home last evening, we stopped at our local mall where we met 3 young people on a mission trip to our area. Many links connected us as well - home states, colleges and universities (Go DAWGS!!), future goals... But the greatest of all our links is the bond of Family - the Family of God. Being in His Family connects us all...and that bond connects us wherever we are. Are you part of His Family?

Friday we were visisitng several towns around us. We saw this truck load of broccoli headed to market. I have never seen this much broccoli in one place at the same time...look at the size of some of those heads! It is so delicious too.
