Good things...

Sorry for the lack of posting and pics....we have been keeping busy - good busy! Last Sunday, Tony and I preached in two different churches. The girls and Tony's mom went with Tony and I went alone to a new church I haven't been before but the pastors are our friends. Both our services went well. Tony preached at Tabernacle of David, the church I grew up in. Pastor Swan took an offering for our family and specifically told Tony that half goes to the girls for their shopping! The girls were so excited!!! They were supposed to pick me up from a mall but instead of just picking me up, we went shopping. Vickie blew almost her whole share on her dream digital camera - a really nice slim lime green (her favorite color of the moment!) one. Kathryn told us that she will put part of her money, almost half of it, towards the laptop that we need to buy to replace the one that had died on us earlier (our poor Compaq) so that she can have the laptop!! What do you think?? Good offer??? Maybe.....these girls are outsmarting us daily :-)

Tony continues to heal well, we got his wound dressed on Friday, everything looks good and he lost his "hump". Just a thin gauze with waterproof bandaid - although a giant one at that!

This week was filled with meals catching up with friends - we had our share of mooncake (can't describe it except that it is a sweet pastry but you can google it:-).. shark fin's soup (yikes!! google this as well if you don't know what this is!), and all the yummy stuff.

Yesterday I preached in a Young Adult Service at Glad Tidings, PJ and we cannot believe that they were so many Africans in the congregation. I will post pictures later. Most of them are from Botswana, but they were also a few from Kenya. Their presence made us feel so at home in that church!! We will be preaching three services today. It is going to be a pretty full day!! Pray for us!

I will post some pics before we leave for a two day vacation to Genting - a theme park resort on a highlands here. The girls are SO looking forward to this - cool weather and crazy rides!! We will be celebrating Kathryn's birthday (21 July) there.

To blog or not to blog is the question....

I was wondering if I should keep this blog when we relocate to Malaysia??? I know that our friends in Malaysia and elsewhere are interested about our lives in Kenya but Malaysia??? I am not sure... I am thinking about it... write me a comment if you think I should keep it up!! Some random pics.... This is Max longing for his daddy. He did this the entire time that Tony was in Malaysia.. poor baby! He loves Tony! Awwww......(the girls' favorite expression!) Kat took some pictures around campus....pretty eh? This huge pine tree is on our front yard. This is one of Vickie's teachers. The middle school was raising funds for some social projects and he challenged them if they raised a certain amount he would shaved off his beard and if they raised even more money, he would shave his hair as well! Brave man and they did raised the funds!! Too bad I didn't get the 'after' picture! Vickie is on the far left, as a stage hand during one of their drama production. She ...

A clean bill of Health!

We have been busy with different appointments.....the girls got their vaccination, Tony and I had a general checkup - cholesterol, blood sugar, blood pressure and several other health issues checked. We are basically healthy. Tony needs to have a minor surgical procedure (on his back) which we still have to work on - finding the surgeon,etc. We also went to the dentist today and the girls and I have NO cavities!!!!! The dentist did some cleaning for us but Tony did have to have a filling done. All in all, the Phangs are in pretty good health - Praise the Lord!! We are also so grateful to our doctor and dentist for giving us their services so lovingly and generously- we are so bless! Another friend (we kinda met on this blog:-) got us rooms in a hotel in Penang, a holiday island- kind of! Woohoo!!!! We will get to have a vacation after our ministry time in Ipoh - we are so looking forward to that. Last evening, we took Tony's mom and sister out for a meal and visited with the...

Getting Ready for yet another trip!

Before I forget, I wanted the friends who have left comments on this blog to know that I read your comments as they are automatically sent to my email address. I tried replying to the address in the emails but it doens't get to you - it just redirects me to this blog again. Anyways, I want you to know that I appreciate the comments- tells me someone is reading what I am writing - I wonder sometimes!! Ok, two evenings ago I had another invite to join an evangelist to Goma, also in DRC. They are doing a crusade there- I cannot tell you how much I want to join them but I can't - not this time anyways. We are in the midst of preparing to return to Malaysia for two months to reconnect with churches and friends who supports our work here and also to give our report. We are also trusting God to connect with more people and churches who are interested in our work here. We need to raise so much more to empower and release more laborers to a ripen harvest in AFrica. I am so overwhelm wit...
