Happy 2006!

Is it really 2006 already? It's hard to believe that it's a new year and we've started back into our regular schedule. Homeschooling for the girls started back yesterday. Also, BSF began again with our first leader's meeting of the new year. We had our first class of 2006 today. There's just something about a new year to make you think of new beginnings and fresh starts. A clean slate with a new year stretched out before us. What will we write on that slate? More importantly, what will God write on that clean slate? Maybe all of us need a clean slate in order to re-order our thinking and to examine our hearts.

We would love to hear from you in 2006. It's so very interesting to us to hear what's going on in your life and the life of your family! It reminds us that life is still going on back in the USA despite the fact that we're on the other side of the ocean. At times, we tend to think of everyone as being in the same spot that they were when we saw them a few months ago. Obviously, that's not the case! So, when you write and tell us the everyday things of your life, we feel that maybe we're not missing out on so much after all.

This will be our official blogsite now and a place, if you desire, for you to check out what's going on with us and what our latest prayer requests are. Also, our sending organization, Bible Study Fellowship, now has our current newsletter posted on their website. That website is:

Blessings to all of you and may 2006 be a year filled with spiritual triumphs!
