March Goings On

Life has been full here in Singapore.  God has been blessing us richly.  One of the greatest blessings He has given us recently is a new church family.  We have truly been thriving in our new church.  Aaron loves his Sunday School class and enjoys the 2-3 hours he spends there each week.  Betsy and Danny are really enjoying the teaching in both the sermon and in our Sunday school class on the book of Romans.  On top of these Sunday activities, Danny has begun attending a Monday morning men’s group that is really helping him to see his Biblical role as a man, husband, and father.  Please pray with us that we will continue to grow in our knowledge of Him!

 

Here are a few pictures from the past few weeks:

On March 7th the school had a fun run to raise money for scholarships.  It was a 5 km (3 mile) run through a park near the school.  Danny helped out by riding his bike around the course and making sure everyone was ok.  After the race our family went for a walk by the sea, then sat down to watch the boats.

It was neat seeing all the small little fishing boats and also the big harbor ships.  Including one of these ships lifted high above the water.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here are a few more shots of Aaron playing.

Aaron is beginning to really enjoy the dirt.  He likes to have his tractors in the sand and dig around.  He also likes to just play with his hands!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Of course, ever present with Aaron are his Thomas trains.  Recently his collection of trains became long enough that he can create a never-ending train to drive around in circles.

Today Danny used Aaron’s blocks to make risers and a looping hill.  Aaron had lots of fun with this, until one of the towers was knocked over and they all fell like dominoes!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fun with a tape measurer.

 

 

And drum!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another blessing of our new church is that Betsy has been able to use her talents with the oboe to share in worship.  This is actually taken at a recent community event involving many of the Baptist churches in Singapore.

 

 

 

 

Last Saturday, Danny and Betsy went on a wonderful date.  We simply got on a bus and rode till the end.  Then we transferred to another bus at random and continued to ride until we felt like getting off to wander a park we happened across.  Betsy had her camera and had a lot of fun taking pictures.  Here are a couple of the incredible sky shots that she got.

Here comes the storm!  We had to take shelter for about 30 minutes as a huge thunder storm rolled through.  It was amazing to watch the clouds roll in, the lightening flash, and the rain fall.

 

 As we walked home we saw this beautiful rainbow as the sun was setting. God is good!

 

 

 

 

Thanks for your continued prayers and support!

Danny, Betsy, and Aaron
