just for the fun of it........

Over the years of living in ministry as a family, there is one thing that both Vicki and I have learned:  We have to find fun to keep sanity close by!

So what do we do when it is Guatemala's Independence Day and it is raining buckets?

We have fun.

What do you do when the kids say that they miss their school mates?

We have fun.

What do you do when the internet is not working because of the rain?

We have fun.

Theology: The study of God.  Sometimes we take Theology too seriously.  I mean, we all desire to know God more.  Yet, if we solely take "knowing" as a mental state, we miss something major with God....heart and soul.  There is Theology in service.  There is Theology in ministry.  There is Theology in rest.  There is Theology in play.


So, with that...we let the fun continue.  We still take Spanish classes, hold meetings, clean, organize, plan retreats, e-mail potential partners, help the kiddos with their school, planning events like TIM HAWKINS in IOWA APRIL 9!!!!, gearing up for a construction team, and planning for the board to come....and more......

Eating fish given to us from a Pastor Friend (fish was in the ocean four days earlier)
Playing Just Dance 4 with Debora and Noemy and the family

Making up a game in the rain (pine needles were confusion bombs, red leaves were healing, and green    leaves were poison).
Naomi looking good!

"Hey guys I look like a cowboy" said the great Pastor Jesus (of course he said that in Spanish)

The locals call it BELA fish.....it was THICK and amazing....

Fish Tacos made from the fresh fish!
