I thought you might enjoy hearing about my schedule. It varies in the study season but yesterday was very long and then today ended with me cooking chili con carne for 24 with the guidance of a very wonderful leader. So Friday began with an hour of corporate prayer after breakfast, which we do on…

God is infinite – I am finite. He knows everything. He knows all but does not cause all. God did not create rebellion but Satan’s discontent based on pride did. The Heaven’s declare the glory of God. He is sovereign which, to me, means that He has the last word on everything. He is a…

Photo looking away from the Alps. What is Manuka Honey? It means I am sipping tea – pukka brand – with lemon, ginger, & manuka honey to build up my immune system because my Australian friends said so. If I had reliable internet I would look it up. Yesterday I sent some emails and only…

I remember that when I was a classroom teacher I would be so happy to meet my many new students but would, inevitably, catch a cold from some foreign germ. Just one cold and then I was set for the year! So guess what – second week in and a monster cold. I even missed…

(of course, mine was Nate…

So I have been typing Wiler, Switzerland but ‘W’ is pronounces ‘V’. I hope the spelling above helps my American friends! First day of October and angels showed up on the train yesterday to help me find my way. It is currently 3 PM Swiss time and my body is telling me to go take…

So how would you spend your last day before leaving on such a momentous six-month quest? I am spending it thanking the Lord that I did not show my dismay to the mechanic who was to attach a battery-tender to my car today. We set it up a month ago. I asked more than once…

In three days I leave for Wiler, Switzerland for YWAM 50 Plus. The suitcase is pretty full but I am still eyeing some books I’ve been wanting to read. One that is thick will probably be left behind. Hans Kung wrote “The Church”. I have yellow markings up to page 114 and have turned down…
