Starting Over--

Shalom Ya'all!

Oops! Starting over with a modified address due to a mix up with the Google accounts! There is probably a reason why I don't normally DO blogs! Still seems confusing to me.

In any event, time is moving on quickly and both Elder Peter and I are working against the clock it seems to get ready in time.

If you got my email today, you know about the wonderful additions in donations that are filling the extra suitcase. I am so glad to be able to bring encouragement in practical ways as well as relationally and spiritually! I have discovered another artist among us. Carol J. from the U.P. sent some knit hats and beautiful paintings, the work of her hands. Jann's worship banner arrived safely, apparently having gotten out of Arkansas ahead of the storm. If I can, I will try to attach some pictures soon! The beautiful scarves and stuffed animals arrived from Theresa in Texas, also ahead of the storm, thankfully!

Four more days, and one of them is a joyful Shabbat to anticipate before getting on the plane away from all of this snow!

Thanks for your patience through my blog mix up...
More to come, Yeshua willing!

Two more days ---counting and praying

Shalom everyone!

well, it has been another full day of various things to do in preparation.

Take a look at the beautiful worship banner Jann made and is sending to our Kenya brothers and sisters.
We think they will be blessed!
And here is a quick snapshot of the beautiful paintings Carol J. from the U.P. made, as well as her handicrafts to keep a few of the children comfortable and warm in the cool evenings. I hope you can zoom in and check out the details!

Ok, the process of entering pictures seems less daunting now, and I have the group pictures being printed so I can  bring them along, so even the development kiosk wasn't too terrible--just 3 trips to the store to do it, after the files just wouldn't send by email for some reason.

The news from Egypt sounds unsettling, and oh, so familiar a process that has happened both recently and in the not so distant past for many different countries.  It all seems to be following in line with the anticipated changes that will continue to make little Israel more and more alone among the nations of the world.

Our hope and comfort is in our Messiah though, and He is not surprised or overwhelmed in any way.

Watching and praying yet another day,
Barb
