Sweet Memories, Exciting Future Looking back, the Lisbon ND USA Vacation Bible School was involved with your wonderful work at Children of Excellence 5 of our last 10 years. We have many, many precious memories! Thank you dear friends for the opportunity to know them and be a part of your efforts. You are special friends and we look forward to hearing more about your "shift" in the future!
Lisbon VBS Thank you Jeff. Lisbon VBS was AMAZINGLY generous to this little village school over the years! Donations of VBS materials, volunteers, and financial donations that completed the new school building, later donations to purchase and install solar powered lights simply amazing- Your VBS students left us standing speechless on more then one occasion. The Lord will surely reward each and every one who had their hand in the blessings. Smile
Love the pics! Thanks so much for the pics that make me feel like I'm back there. I'm so grateful for your faithfulness and perseverance. Your house looks lovely and "good job Kirk"! Is that Praise in the pool? Can't believe how big! Blessings!

A What! It surely looks like a new truck to me. Ain't God good. I know it is not before you needed it. Linda read your blog in church yesterday and everyone applauded the goodness and graciousness of God.
SORRY I am very sorry to hear that.
Our computer has not been working very well for some time so I have been going to the internet cafe.
This morning it started working well so I just came to sit by it this evening just to look through my mails and this sad news.
We will be praying for you and the girls.
May his soul rest in peace.
Blessings

love and memories I cant tell you how much i wish i could be there with all the kids! I remember one on one with Prince in math. He tried so hard and was always willing to learn. He was such a good kid and had a smile that would soften the hardest of hearts. i will miss him dearly.
Hey Lisa hope you realise you will never be the same again! :)...not after those STUNNING kids....thanks for your awesome updates on Apebouso! really kool that you ended your stay with an exursion! be blessed in your travelling home!
Mom,
Your last statement about playing in the rain is so true. I find, that as an adult, we often times, are running to our cars or shelter, hoping to get there before we get to wet, yet children will play in the rain as long as we let them, just like the sun is shining, sometimes longer! I now am asking myself that same question, what, as an adult, have I lost?? There is no answer. So guess what I'm doing the next time we have rain (as long as there isn't severe lightning and thunder and tornadoe and severe thunderstorm warnings) playing in the rain with my daughter. Well, she's up from her nap, gotta fly.
We all love you.

Hi Christine,
I enjoyed reading your blog. Our days at the cider mill seem like distant memories. I often wonder about you and your family. Glad to know you made it back safely. It was very cold and rainy here today-reminded me of those cold fall days we shared. Thank you for sharing your stories.
Alicia
