I just had to do it...


I just had to post this picture of these two handsome men! The one on the left is my handsome husband and the one on the right is the new version of my father-in-law, Richard Todd.  Many of you may not have known this but my father-in-law had a heart attack and quadruple by-pass surgery in August.  Since then he has lost 50 pounds and is doing great!  We are so thankful that the Lord has restored him! Actually, I think the Lord made him into a new updated version! ;) 
We are so proud of him and the effort he (with the help of my mother-in-law, Lynda) put forth to make such a wonderful recovery.  My father and mother in-law are some of the most godly people I know and wanted to honor them on my blog today.  
We love you both so very much!!

Mother's Day - Oct. 16


It's taken me awhile to get back to organizing things after we returned from the U.S. 

Since we've been back we've celebrated Mother's Day which is in October in Argentina.
I love this picture because I dearly love each and every one of these mothers you see here. These ladies are true friends of mine. They all love the Lord and are faithful to Him.

In October we also had another children's activity.  It was great to see all the new kids from the neighborhood again! 
I brought back a Twister game that I had bought in a Thrift Store in the States and we played it for the first time  with the kids at the activity. I've been wanting one of these games for them for a long time but they are so expensive here. So I was so thrilled when I got it for $2.50 (new)!! Cha-ching!!  I love Thrift Stores!!




Now that we are getting back in the swing of things again we are restructuring our ministries.  Now I'm back as a Sunday School teacher!! It's been over 2 years since I've taught regularly in Sunday School.  I'm very excited to be back teaching the children again. I've missed them!

That leads me to a prayer request.  There are so many children in our neighborhood that would come to our Sunday School but their parents won't let them.  Please pray that the Lord will open doors so that we would be able to reach these kids and their families.
