Christmas in Africa
...a card I'm designing for AMA



Excerpt from http://www.africamissionalliance.org
"Thousands of poor children and mothers in Africa will not receive any gift from anyone this Christmas season. Some will not have any Christmas meal. Simplify your Christmas this year. Give a gift to a poor child or mother in Africa in honor or in memory of your friends and family. Africa Mission Alliance will deliver your gift and send a Christmas card (this card that I'm designing) to your friends or family in whose honor the gift has been given."

I haven't finished the insides and the back of the card yet. Go to www.africamissionalliance.org and you can donate $25 for books for a child, $50 for a goat for a widow, $100 to feed street children, or $200 for a sewing machine. It kinda works like, instead of spending extravagantly on unnecessary gifts, you give to Rwanda and they will send your friend a card explaining why they are not getting a gift this year. hahaha. Well, not exactly. It kind of lets the both of you participate in the giving.

Other than that, I've started up school again. 18 more credits!!!

IPS came and went last month and Paul took some family pictures of us while the other students were stressing over their model shoots.


 







And I made more postcards! I printed a bunch of pictures to fit in my little IKEA wooden frames and now I have little pictures all over my room. Jon thinks it looks clutterred but I like em. I have pictures from Rwanda right above my desk where I can see all the time.






This is one of my favourite pictures of the two handsome boys... Uncle John and Liam.

What else...
Went to Singapore right after IPS for a TLC graduate dinner (lifeformingcoach.org)
Attended AOG Malaysia's 50th Anniversary Banquet in Sunway Lagoon Resort Hotel
Attended the Global Leadership Summit (Bill Hybels) conference and was inspired! Also got to hang out with Winne and Shan and the long-lost Derrick. I had fun.

Right now, we're getting ready to leave for Taiwan next Wed to play tchoukball in the Warm Up Games for the World Games (2009) in Kaohsiung! We will visit Taipei for 5-6 days and then go to Taoyuan for some friendly matches. Kinda cool how I get to go back to the 3 cities that I taught CIs in.

I get to meet Bobby & Julie!!!

God bless you all. I kinda sorta miss Xanga but it is too much work. haha... Add me on Facebook!
