Recently, . . .



We were blessed to have Pastor Beltane Harrigan, from St. Croix, US Virgin Islands, over for dinner one night during Spiritual Emphasis Week. ILE brings in a guest speaker for one week each trimester (a little over the halfway point) to give students spiritual encouragement and rest. The Lord spoke to Tully and me through Pastor Harrigan's messages and he was a delight to get to know. He and the boys tried to stump each other with riddles and enjoyed sharing jokes. We look forward to keeping in touch with him.

A race at the track that goes around Parque la Paz (I think that's the name!). It has a huge hill that children slide down on pieces of cardboard. Our kids tried it, but got bogged down in the mud--it's too far into the rainy season for that, we decided! : )




From the top of the big hill, looking towards our "neighborhood."




Our sweet big sister, Lynda Gregg, went with us to the Parque, then treated the children to ice cream on the way back home! She has been such a blessing to us in so many ways--she will be graduating in December and moving to Honduras and we are all going to miss her immensely!!






Carmen's dirty feet after stepping in a mud puddle hidden by tall grass! : )



Fresh squeezed orange juice--a treat at the park.
