It is still hard for us to recognize the holiday season as the weather doesn't change much. But this past Thursday we gathered with about 50 others at the school for a staff Thanksgiving potluck. It was great fun and included lots of good food, all the usual Thanksgiving dishes. To top off the day, we even had a huge downpour to make us feel like we were home in the northwest!
On the other hand, it is easy to know that the holiday season is upon us, everything is getting busier! We are looking forward to Christmas parties on each of the next two Saturdays and to family camp with our church the third week of December.
During this holiday time we want to thank you all for your continued support for us, both by prayers and finances. We couldn't do what we are doing without your help!
Please pray with us that we might be a light during this holiday season as many of the people here have no idea what Christmas is really for, but are willing to listen and ask questions about it. Pray also for these last three weeks at ICS before Christmas break. Many students will be leaving at the end of the semester, so these last weeks are the last chance we have to show them God's love.
Aaron has been a little sick the last few days (a runny nose). He is getting better, but please pray for continued healing for him.

So very glad you were able to share in our American Holiday while in a foreign country! Thanksgiving was terrific here, as well.
We sure will continue in our prayers for you guys. We're confidant you'll remember us in your prayers, too, for the entire world has lost souls inhabiting it, and all of God's chosen are His representatives, where ever they are, each and every day, privileged to serve and attest with each opportunity we are given, as we go about our daily lives.
Your little Aaron remains adorable!
