Church Beginnings

How is everybody? Sorry I haven't written in a while. Lately I have,yes, been on the computer a lot lately, but (I'm whispering this), I got lazy. I couldn't really think of anything to write about(I have a rather uneventful life.)
Our first service in La Victoria is tomorrow! Please pray for it, because lately the "team" has met quite strong opposition from the Enemy. On our way back from Caracas Monday, after about a half-hour, the car broke down. Mom, the babies, Seth, and I rode home in a taxi, but Dad and Morgan waited for three hours after we left for the grua, so it was a LOOOng day. So it has been hard for Dad to get things for the service, such as the air conditioner and other things. Also, the seats that had been planned for did not arrive, but we did get some seats for the meantime. So, please pray that the Lord will bless the people tomorrow, because the Devil is fighting hard. Thanks a ton.

I'm BAAAAAAAAAACK!!!!

I'm Baaaaaaack!! Today was a literal killer. In my Bible reading today(Matthew 24), I noticed a key verse in the midst of Jesus' warnings to the disciples of the End Times. Matthew 24:46-"Blessed is that servant,whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing." Though HHH and EL GOBIERNO SOCIALISTA DE VENEZUELA continue their steady decline and things worsen, may we continue serving and not despair. I got up at the usual time(5:45) and went on my daily walk with Mom. Except that today was a test day, which means i had to walk around the park 8 times(the equivalent of 2 miles) in a set time. Oh boy, am I whipped after that! School went well, with nothing worth mentioning. At 2:15, after scrumptious grilled cheese sandwiches and the following dishes, I packed up and went to music school. Little did I know what was in store for me there. The teacher arrived at the usual time, adout a quarter 'til 3, and we began our practice. It eventually lasted until a quarter 'til 7, and then the tenors, of which I am a participant, had to stay a whole half-hour more!! I can honestly say that the"old man" within me wanted to scream out and stomp out of the classroom. I'm home now, and just downed a delicious dinner of chicken legs and great strawberry juice. Hope u all have a wonderful day, and may the Lord continue to bless!

Weekend, Feb.2-3

Ok, here I go. I am attempting to resume all the events of my life in the last day or two. This may end up like a season of 24, but here goes. Yesterday I went to music school, that is, choir, which lasts about 3 hours, and got a GREAT new announcement. The teacher wants us to begin going 4 days a week, instead of just 2. HOOORAY!!(ya right). After music school we headed over to the Schag's house for my dad and Uncle Joe to work on a video presentation they're going to show at the missions conference in Caracas in two weeks. Anyway, on the way over, I revieved some terrific news. Abot a month ago, I took my semester exams; Mom packaged them and sent them to A-Beka to be graded. Up until Friday, we STILL did not know if they had gotten them, and that morning Mom said that if they didn't get them, they would send some more, and I would have to take them all over again. YIKES!! I definitely didn't want to do that, because it would mean re-studying ALL of what I had learned up until then. But as Mom picked us up, she told me that she had gotten an e-mail that afternoon saying they had recieved the exams. GLORY HALLELUJAH!! We had a great time at the Schag's, and we watched CARS, which is a totally AWESOME movie, with AMAZING graphics!
