It seemed like a pretty relaxed weekend.
I spent a lot of time editing video so that I could make a dvd for folks to show their home churches about this dedication we attended.
Then Kendal and I spoke in Pidgin church service (lotu) giving a 10 minute report on the dedication. She did most of the speaking and I showed the video. I was rather impressed by my wife today. She shared her heart in Tok Pisin which is hard to do (well for me anyway). I usually use the language to convey information and facts as it's a work language for me. But she said in Tok Pisin,
"as support workers, we live here and don't go to the village, and we can forget the importance of our work. But going to this translation helped remind us of how God's Word can change people, and how many more people there are in the world that still don't have His Word... and need it."
I think she got some folks choked up. (-;
Spent time with the kids, Sydney and Kendal had Syd's birthday celebration. A Girls sleep over!!!
Calvin and I tinkered in the workshop and made an invention (marble run) out of the junk he found under the house one day.
"Dad, I collected a bunch of garbage, let's make an invention out of it." what dad can say no to THAT challenge! I made a video of it I hope to share one day, maybe on you tube.
Of course we had our traditional Sunday home made pizza. Sunday is our family day.
a quote from my son.
"I drew this picture... DUDE!"...."wait, do you know what dude is?"
reply from dad:
"Dude, I was saying DUDE since I was your age... DUDE."
he looked very puzzled and then smiled.
It's been a while since I heard that word, admittedly.
