TOTW

This past week has been busy, but good. I picked up my parent's from Indy (they're back from 2 months in Africa). Debbie helped my brother John make little makalas (800 of them) for the Africa table at Grace College's Taste of the World during missions week. There were plenty of French missionaries around to help with the French table (if you're wondering why she wasn't over there making Boeuf Borgignon - is that how it's spelled?

We also had a display setup trying to lure another unsuspecting college student to the Château to help us out as an intern. Not sure if it worked or not, but we talked to several students, handed out a lot of flyers about the need for interns, and gave out a lot of good chocolate. Please continue to pray for some good contacts with people to help us out this next year, and also keep praying for the people who are already seriously considering it - that the application process would go smoothly for them.

Debbie found a home for Nadia! Thanks Brandee Martinsky for connecting us with Jane!

The prayer guide is just about done - which is the largest project we do here at GBIM, so I'm really happy about that, it's a big load off my back, as we're beginning to see the end of the project. BTW, it's a great way to pray for missions, so pick one up when it comes out... it's free of course.

Work has started on the re-stucco-ing of our house - it's too late to finish it this year, most of the work will take place in the spring, but still, it's nice to see it started.

Debbie and I also enjoyed a party with some friends---it was a pirate themed mystery murder dinner thing. Thought I'd include a picture of Debbie and I in our pirate outfits.
