It’s been almost a year since we got on the plane. Knowing that we were leaving friends and family; we would never be the same. What has it been like leaving everything we know? Laughter and tears; sun and snow. Up and down; love and fear. All while trusting God for the reason we are here. Relying on support and prayers from the ones you care for, Though scary, freeing, challenging; it means relying on God even more. I’m so thankful to be part of a team who sees that Christ is our need Whether they can see the impact first hand or not, they have blessed students at ICSV. The students and families are so precious, eager to learn and understand What it means to love the Lord with all their hearts and to follow His command. At times I feel so left alone and wondering why God has called me here But then I talk to a student, or go to a school event, that’s when it all becomes clear. God never said life would be easy or even how we think it might be We just need to rely on Him, as He
Awesome pictures and enjoyed your play by play of your departure from home, flight, entry, and first several hours. Let me know if you find a good way to upload video...I'm trying several through Picasa but they are taking forever (huge files and slow upload speed) - I found a better way to do the pics on picasa to post to the blog. After you load your pics on Picasa into a new album (folder) you can put a star by each picture you want to upload later - you can caption each picture in Picasa - click upload to web album (make sure you have selected the whole folder) and there will be an option to upload only pictures that have a star - once they upload to your Picasa web album there is a blogger link - if you do it correctly you will see a single picture in your blog and if you click it will open to your picasa web album where you can do a slide show and see the captions - much easier than uploading one at a time via blogger with the 5 at a time limit...let us know when you are on Skype too OK?
