Allison's Birthday

We are back online! We were having computer problems and had to wait for 2 parts to come from the States. So, this blog entry takes us back to the beginning of April for my birthday. Dan and the kids took me to the Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens and it was beautiful! I love being outside so it was a perfect way to celebrate!

Finance Retreat at Sun City

Sun City 2013
The finance team enjoyed a retreat in the middle of March. Lots of fun and refreshment as well as encouraging team meetings where we studied the Sermon on the Mount. It was a time to say hello to a new family who just joined the team and a time to say goodbye to a family who is going stateside and returning elsewhere. Click on the pic of our family to see more photos from the retreat. It was a really neat place to stay. Dan, Lucas, Alexis and I (Allison) were recognized as having served 5 yrs with the IMB. It's officially the end of April but wow! The time has gone quickly but we are so content where we are! This really is what God has for us and we are enjoying seeing Him at work all around us. Thank you for staying connected with us through prayer, emails and by reading this blog! We appreciate it and couldn't do it without your support!

A package arrived!

We can guess but we can never truly tell when a package will actually arrive. So, Rebekah received a birthday package just recently in the mail and we had fun taking more birthday pictures of her!
