Finding a church can surprise you.

Before we ever left New York, we knew that finding a church would be tough.

After all, there will never be a church that meets our needs like Graffiti. It’s the church where I gave almost 2 years of my life to, as a semester missionary, being a youth director, and even the children’s director for [...]

Raise your hand if you have a love-hate relationship.

I have one with the internet.

It’s great!  It keeps me in touch with people I know from all over the globe.  I can chat with a girl from Indonesia if I want to, and I can write an email to my husband, even when he’s next to me.

I can find out all kinds of information, [...]

Besides the tomatoes, there are other [...]

Willik was a bit anxious and excited, but he came out of school the very first day saying it was “Awesome!!!”  He’s very excited about the fact that recess is a total of 45 minutes long(15min. in the morning and 30 min. after lunch), and as [...]

they might be friendly, if I ever meet them…

So, if you’ve talked to me in the last several weeks, you know that the hard part of this move for me is the social aspect.

Fabio’s got his new job to meet people, although most of them probably don’t live close to us.  Willik and Phoenix have school now, where soon enough they’ll have lots [...]
