OK, so I meant to do a really information packed Newsletter right after Christmas but in time for the New year. Oops. Instead of that I took the week off and the girls and I headed to Budapest to meet up with our friend, Mary Jill Callery - a long time missionary in Europe. We spent 3 days at the Ramada Aqua World. It was wonderful and I returned feeling stress free (well, as about stress free as I can get). I had a little difficulty in getting the girls back over the border in to Romania. I am going to have to go to court and get the documents straightened out. My attorney as well as the police say that Bucharest may have to write a new law for me as this situation has never come up before.
I will post a couple of more things on the blog later (I know, promises promises). I wanted to post pictures of all the Christmas activities for the widows, mentally ill, orphans and poor - ah, we didn't use my camera. I had pictures sent to me over e-mail and I am sure I saved them - somewhere. When I am involved in all these activities I am not usually thinking about taking pictures - sorry.
Irene and Wayne were here from Wales and together we gave out over 600 Christmas boxes. We had Christmas parties at Mocrea, at my school, at Maranatha Orphanage and the church.
At Vinga we had a wonderful Christmas Eve service including a baby dedication, a baptism, caroling and a candle light service.

what a great pic of you & the girls! They're getting so grown up!!! :D I guess kids have a way of doing that don't they?
Glad to hear you took some time for yourself - and I for one will be happy to see the Christmas pics, whenever they happen to get posted.
Love & blessings from Nairobi!

What a cute pic of you and the girls. Reading this post brought back memories from our last trip to RO at Christmas time...5 years ago. Glad you got a chance to relax.
