Liverpool 2004 -- August 18-21
We
loved you so much that we were delighted to share with you not only the
gospel of God but our lives as well, because you had become so dear to
us . . . . . encouraging, comforting and urging you to live lives
worthy of God, who calls you into his kingdom and
glory. (1 Thes 2:8,12)

Here are my teammates for our team competitions. Dieters RULE !!!
The
young ladies of my discussion group. I asked Ruth (one of the
co-leaders), "do you think they would be intimidated by me?" Ruth says,
"I think you should be more worried about them intimidating you!!"
Thanks Ruth for giving me the proper perspective and thanks y'all for
sharing honestly. One of the highlights for me was hearing kathi say,
"I think I can say for the first time that I know in a real way that
God loves me." And then the ultra-quiet Helen also accepts Christ.Helen
and Kathi, you've made the best decision of your life. Every one of you
gets a STAR!! Praise God also for Adrian and Donny who accepted Christ
as their Lord and Saviour -- against all odds. And Praise Him for the
awesome work He is continuing to do in each of your livesAnd we also thank God
continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard
from us, you accepted it not as the word of men, but as it actually is,
the word of God, which is at work in you who believe. (1 Thes 2:13)
(The San Diego Team -- with Danny and Donny imitating Alex =)
The
body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all it's
parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ. (1 Corin
12:12) Praise God for the unique giftings and experiences
He has given each of you. It seems strange that we would need to travel
all the way to England to learn to trust God and seek Him in all our
ways. It seems strange that God would take us across 8 time zones just
so we might find ourselves on our knees -- believing again that God can
and does continue to work in amazing ways.Inspired by all the guys at Liverpool, here's a bit of randomness for y'all ..... "SKY!!"
I saw these animations and was thinking of a couple here who recently
got the cutest dog in the world -- it's a Dalmation named Barkley. They
are the only non-cartoon people I know who own a Dalmatian. Ok, but
this puppy is growing up real fast.with love,
EMT 2004p.s. In the next few posts, I hope to share some
vignettes describing a few things that God has taught me specifically.
Stay tuned and thanks for taking the time to read this post.

Will & I are very impressed by Pastor Luke's photogenic qualities. Is he harbouring a secret desire to be a cheerleader?!
The teens are still very encouraged and recently witnessed Danny, James, Mona and Tom get baptised! Praise God, woo-hoo!
