First Walk on the Beach


Yesterday we walked from Dolphin Beach to Sunset Beach to have tea with Andre and Nola.As you can see, soft white sand, beautiful blue sea and sky. Incredible!
We had tea and evening meal and a very good time of chatting with Andre and Nola.
We watched a video of the Prisoners production - a drama set on Acts 16 - very good. Jenny was there too and I gave her all the hugs from Birmingham!
Aje brought us home and we tried to get an early night as we had to be up early this morning for Bible School. I say "tried" as Duncan spent ages trying to send an e mail to Ruth and Phil and was then swotting up on 1 and 2 Thessalonians as he'd heard that Apostle Leigh was teaching on that! Teacher's pet or what!
Bible school was really good and the worship beforehand was powerful - led by Charlene. God was powerfully there. The lessons were very good too - Adele taught on cults and false teaching and I learnt a lot.
We are now back at the apartment and Louie and Hope are here again, and so is the maid. There are many things we have to get used to over here!
This afternoon we are going to watch Cherie dance and then this evening it's Households - like Housegroups I think.
It was lovely to see our "guide and driver" from the summit again, Louie. What a HUGE hug he gave me and he actually lifted Duncan off his feet and swung him round! These people know how to love! They are making us so welcome and at home.
So to all those at home who also know how to love - thank you for your comments on the blog - they are really appreciated! We will try to send some personal e mails soon when things are a little more settled and routine. XX

  1. Glad that you fell so welcomed by everyone over there and that you are having excellent spiritual input also.
    Saw a film last night at church for the ladies called 'Pass it Forward' - It was set in Las Vegas - in the poorer area - perhaps where my brother lives but I'm not sure about that. It was a very moving film about a young boy who wanted to do his part in changing the world for the better. If you haven't seen it it would touch your hearts also. Love Mum/Pam xxx

  2. Do you get homework? It would be funny two ex-teachers having to do homework again.
