It amazes me how God speaks to us. It would be nice if sometimes he would just pop into my head and SPEAK to me, but then of course I would be completely terrified, so He never does (Thank you God!). Instead he speaks to me through other people, scripture passages, situations, devotions, His creation [...]
Ok, so I haven’t blogged in a few days, because I am exhausted! We are constantly doing something. Everyone makes fun of me but this chick needs a good 11 or 12 hours of beauty sleep (hehe!). Anyway… On Saturday, we got up for worship and then got ready for Hora Feliz (an informal, short [...]
Wow, today we traveled to Buenos Aries for a little sight seeing, and shopping for souvenirs. But first, we all got up this morning just like any other morning. Apparently there was QUITE a thunderstorm Sunday night. When we first got up in the morning everything was wet, and everyone was talking about the thunder [...]
Sunday seemed to be more or less a day of rest (I may have read somewhere that someone planned it like that). We began the day with a short period of worship. I will admit that when we first got here, I felt a little “funny” having worship in the living room just sitting around [...]

Today we kicked off the Hora Feliz for the team here. It was sooooo fun!!! I finally got to be ‘me’ — dressed funny, walking the streets waving and smiling at strangers, and passing out candy to the kids! The response was tremendous, and we passed out more than 400 suckers, formed more than 300 [...]
Hora Feliz – The activities at the “Villa” We started from the home of Rick and Jill Elledge attracting/inviting everyone to the Hora Feliz which was about a three block walk to the “Villa”. God is so GOOD! We, as well as many had been praying for a beautiful day, it was beyond [...]
