REUNION with TEAM MATES

July 14, 2010

We had just 24 hours to unwind from our travels before joining our team at the annual Spiritual Life Conference Friday through Tuesday. We had a fantastic time reuniting with all our team mates. The kids loved seeing their friends again and played so hard. Jeff and I cannot express enough how blessed we are with AWESOME team mates!

We had a great family - husband, wife and 4 of their 5 children (3 of whom are teenagers) - from the states that came down to do a VBS with the missionary kids. Dave Bremners was our retreat speaker. He and his family were missionaries in Paraguay for years and has now been in SIM leadership in the US for 3 years. It was great to have him back among us. He brought his wife and 2 (of their 3) teenaged kids. It always means so much to me when teens are willing to invest in our children because our kids soooooo look up to them!
