Acts 18:10

It was a blessing to be at St. Andrew's this morning as a family singing songs and listening to the message in English!  It was wonderful to be reminded in the message of what our Father said to Paul: "...I have many in this city who are my people..."

Food to eat back home

Caleb is looking forward to being home in the US for the summer.  When I asked him for the list of foods he's looking forward to eating when he gets home, this is what he gave me:

• Macaroni-n-cheese
• Campbell's alphabet soup
• McGriddle from McDonald's

What does that say?...

Solar Eclipse

Andy posted some pictures of the May 21 solar eclipse from our front door here taken at 5:20am.  Caleb and Andy witnessed it while I enjoyed my beauty sleep the whole time...

Boggle Time

Caleb's two friends Jimmy and Kevin (yes more and more Vietnamese kids are adopting English names here) come each Saturday morning to play.  Here they are enjoying a game of Boggle for the first time and are doing well.  They are both among the top students in this city who can speak English fluently.

Father of bride

The three of us caught some sort of a stomach bug for the past few days with Andy suffering the most.  However we were invited to a student's sister's wedding yesterday.  So I gave Andy Imodium beforehand.  Click here for some more pictures of the wedding.  Andy's glad he was able to eat!  We are all doing better now.

The work continues

Our employment with ELIC has ended officially on April 30, 2012.  How ironic it falls on the same day as "Reunification Day" in Vietnam.  However the work goes on.  We had a blessed time with our old teammates as well as old students as we gather in both Hai Phong and Dalat.  Here are some more pictures of our time together.  Blessed be His name!
