Merry Christmas near and far!

We are in the "Season" and you can tell by the hustle and bustle all around us here in the States.  Each year we remind ourselves about the TRUE meaning of the season and that we need to focus on sharing love with each other rather than tangible gift-giving.  It means so much to spend time with family and friends, especially when we have been far away for many holidays now.  Thanksgiving was so precious -- talking, sharing, cooking together, laughing, playing games, eating, sharing stories from the past..... laughing some more.  Precious!  Moments we will always cherish.

Last year we were with our Namibian family at the cafe.... sharing small gifts, singing together, enjoying a special meal and those memories bring a smile today.  May you too enjoy the special moments with family and friends as you love one another, maybe singing together, maybe sharing a meal, maybe telling stories..... whatever you do.... remember the most precious gift of all.... our Savior Jesus Christ.  Without HIM we would have nothing of value to give to others.  He IS love.... in the flesh.

Oh how we adore HIM!

Merry Christmas from Namibia and America.... !
