Christmas

Tuesday, December 26th, 2006 by Fox McCloud

Hi Everybody, Things have been insanely awesome over here as of late. In order to try and describe it all, I would have to write a hundred and eighty seven page update. I’ll try not to do that. I will open with an attention getting statement. In just last week, the number of people that [...]

They’re Still Hungry!

Saturday, December 23rd, 2006 by Wesley and Buttercup

We had finished the delicious dishes HotChocoLOT had prepared for our Christmas party, but I realized our 11 friends were still hungry. Not for more chicken or fried rice, but hungry to know more about God! As Dove and our new friend Apple washed dishes in the kitchen, I joined their conversation to find Apple [...]

Anticipation…

Saturday, December 23rd, 2006 by Ginger

Tuesday was it…the day I have been anticipating for so many years. (Uh, no- I didn’t get proposed to or handed a million dollars. It’s even better than that. Read on!) I have always doubted whether I really knew what I believed, and questioned my ability to share it with others. My Father showed Himself [...]

In this thing together

Thursday, December 21st, 2006 by Rosey

Sarah, her husband Joseph, Grace, Naomi, and Joy are all smiles. Sitting around Grace’s dining room table studying English for an hour each week is a blast. These ladies are tight friends. It makes for a fun teaching atmosphere. No one is afraid of making mistakes and they learn almost as if they’re on a [...]

Only Guys Allowed!

Thursday, December 21st, 2006 by Ken and Barbie

Last night was crazy! We had a guy’s night. 13 men. 7 Asians and 6 Americans. We went to this restaurant that we call ‘Shutters.’ (We call it that because it has shutters on the windows.) It’s been our favorite place over the past couple of months. The boss is kind of like a crusty [...]

Duck Dinner

Thursday, December 21st, 2006 by Dove

On the same day I washed all the contact numbers in the washing machine with all my clothes, Joanna and I were supposed to meet two of the people we had met the day before at a restaurant. We had been offered a seat at a table where another couple was already sitting! The rules [...]

‘Tis the Season

Monday, December 18th, 2006 by cooldude

Hey Everybody- It’s that time of the year again for all of the Christmas festivities to start. Only this year I am in another country. I hope to be able to spread Christmas cheer to all of my friends as the holiday season continues. I have had two great chances thus far to talk about [...]

Life

Monday, December 18th, 2006 by Fox McCloud

Hi Everybody, It’s been a good week. In overview, I spent some time with Torpedo, we ate hot pot. It was good to see him since he’s been back from the capital. I met a new friend named Jeff. We went to the park, and it seems that he has some understanding about who God [...]

Mistaken Identity

Sunday, December 17th, 2006 by Reebok

“Who is that?” Melissa and I both wondered as we saw her walking towards us. I couldn’t remember her name at first, but I knew her face. I’ll call her Hannah. At that moment, all I knew was that it certainly wasn’t Faith (the girl whom we had set out to meet earlier that morning). [...]

A Gift from God

Sunday, December 17th, 2006 by Wesley and Buttercup

David & Lianna have joined the family!!!!! It happened tonight over duck soup. As we sat at the table, theguy, Dove and I made conversation with the young couple. As theguy talked with David about dreams for the future, theguy said that the one thing he really wants to do with his life is to [...]
