It´s hard to believe that a month ago, on February the 4th, we were picking Grace Wood up at the airport! Time flies when you are having fun...and working! We had heard many glowing reports about Grace before she arrived and are now ready to concur with all of them! We are very blessed to have her in our home and working along side us in the ministry here.
We have kept her pretty busy...besides adjusting to Andalusian Spanish,which is always a challenge for new arrivals, Grace has fit in well with the worship team and youth group and has been helping me in the office with filing, organizing, copies and errands.
About a year ago I wrote a little book entitled "Tea Time with a Theme...Esther". I had the priveledge of homeschooling our girls for a number of years when we lived in the Dominican Republic. To make science, math, home ec. and learning manners a bit more fun (all homeschooling moms can relate I´m sure!) we used to have teaparties! When my girls moved away I began having teaparties with the little girls in the church! One day as I was reading through the book of Esther, the Lord dropped this idea of teaching the book of Esther through a teaparty! So! this past month I decided to try it out on Grace and 2 of our young ladies in the church in hopes that we can have a tea for the younger girls in the church in the near future. Who says you can´t enjoy your work!
