Welcome Food

Friday, May 1
Ruthie started helping us this morning. She washed clothes and helped us play "Go Fish" in Lavukaleve (we're learning numbers 1-10). Aaron completed the hole and finished the drain pipe for the shower and kitchen.

Saturday, May 2
Aaron is still painting. The undercoat is almost finished (just the bathroom left), and he hopes to start painting colors on Monday.

Sunday, May 3
The bell didn't ring until 6:15 this morning, and it was only 36 times. Enough sun today to run the washing machine, I'm so thankful.

Somebody is always bringing us food. Today it was a "crawfish" and umalau that had been boiled in coconut milk. Think "choice lobster". We reciprocated with spaghetti, hardly a fair trade.

Joanna,
Your comment (several days back) on Psalm 121 about how God sifts everything through His hands was such an enCOURAGEment. I love reading about the adventures God has taken you through. Your photos are, as always, such a blessing to behold, because they make us all feel "a part" of your activities. Thank you for your testimonies of God's grace, mercy, and of your appreciation of even the smallest pleasures He has given you. It reminds us all to be more thankful.

We love you and are keeping you in prayers. Hope our SS class (MA-3) package made it to you by now. If not, maybe next trip back it will be there. It will be interesting to see how long it takes to make the trip.

Blessings,
Pat (and Ken)
(By the way... did you know Ken had a heart attack on April 15? He's doing fine and back to work after having a stint put in a 100% blocked artery. Thanks for your faithful prayers.)
