This Year So Far
It's been quite a few months since a real update on what's been happening in my life, so here we go. Just so I don't get bogged down and you don't get bored, it's only a list of a few highlights.- Our church held cooking classes for the Saniku parents. They were extremely well-received.
- Many friends visited! Thanks Staci, Cristy, Haley, and Heather for your uplifting friendship. (Staci wrote a very nice, thorough update of the wonderful weekend on her blog.)
- Esther and I went to see the San Francisco Symphony perform Mendelssohn's Elijah with Herbert Blomstedt conducting. It was well worth the $25 tickets and $20 parking!
- My family came! Mom, Dad, Midori, and Jason weren't here for long, but it was nice to be all together.
- "Uncle" Ron made a harpsichord and he and the buyer had a "Harpsichord Party" with a free concert to showcase it (along with yummy food). Amazing!
- Tiffany, Michelle and I walked through a swarm of bees and emerged unscathed. Neither of them had ever been stung by a bee.
- I said goodbye to my nearby Bible workers Michelle and Heidi, who are moving on to ministry elsewhere.
- I cooked for 17 CCC colporteur leaders for a couple days. It was fun and spiritually rejuvenating. Time with Janet Page was precious!
This is all general, surface stuff though. There has been so much more going on--and there's much to come! Don't touch that dial...
Those who surrender their lives to [God's] guidance and His service will never be placed in a position for which He has not made provision.
Whatever our situation,if we are doers of His word,
we have a Guide to direct our way;
Whatever our perplexity, we have a sure Counselor;
Whatever our sorrow, bereavement, or lonliness,we have a sympathizing Friend.
