Post Trip Testimonies and BIG NEWS

Tony was in Medan and I found myself at Tabernacle of David as the team was giving their testimonies on the Cambodian trip and had a slide presentation; After the service, many were interested in future trips!  Exciting times ahead!





During one of tuk tuk ride in the evening, Christine Yap whipped out her fancy smancy super bright flashlight to help us climb onto the tuk tuk. She told me that it was a gift from Pastor David.  During lunch, I mentioned to Pas David about the flashlight and he ended up giving me 4!! These are expensive flashlights but super duper bright.   When I got home, I had fun playing with them and almost blinding my family! I LOVE gadgets :)
My sister, Ann, told me to get this for my tennis elbow...I did but it didn't help :(
I received this cute Baby Shower invite from our good friend in Tennessee.  I feel so blessed to have friends in many parts of the world and how we can celebrate with each other even though we might be thousands of miles away.
Okay, you have to admit this whistling kettle is so CUTE!!!! I LOVE IT, I WANT IT!!! CAN I HAVE IT??? PRETTY PLEASE??? TONY PHANG!!!!!!!!!!! You guys think he gets the hint? Or am I being too subtle? Should I be more direct?

We were at Pavillion and saw this music group - I think they are from South Africa.  Listening to them made me so homesick for Kenya...but I have a trip planned next year...so I will wait IMPATIENTLY for it.



A young lady whom I meet with regularly tweeted me this picture of her studying the Word - makes my heart sing when I saw this, especially when does it with a good cup of coffee!


BIG NEWSSSS....Saving this for the end....
This little person had such a complicated journey towards her college education....it was challenging while we were working towards it and at one point, things were looking really bleak, then a "SUDDENLY" happened for her and she is HEADING TO COLLEGE!!  We are so happy for her. Although, I am not sure how I will do when she does leave us...boohoo hoo
I may get to see this other little person soon :)

Since both girls are leaving us, I needed to train our youngest child to drive in case we needed a third driver. This was Max first lesson and I must say he did pretty good! If only he is tall enough to see where he is going...

I enjoy sharing bits of our lives with you guys! Take care everyone!

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...
ONE YEAR LATER!!! Yes, it's one year later since our return to Malaysia and Max made it and is still with us :-) I cannot believe that it was a year ago since I posted my last entry, and I am finding it even more amazing that we have actually been "home" for a little over a year! I can say that life in Malaysia has been full of suprises and is fast and furious. I was inspired to blog again when I was going through our digital photos and doing some digital decluttering. I was amazed by how much has happened in just a year. So, over the next few days, I am hoping to get you all caught up withn all that has happened the last 12 months and I will try to post as many pictures as I can.....I am not very patient waiting for pictures to upload :-) Max - survived the 24 hour journey and seems to have adapted pretty good to Malaysian life. We are so glad we brought him with us! Reunited with their youngest cousins ... Annabelle and Isaac. I think they will featured q...

The Secrets of a Pastor's Marriage

Recently I posted a picture of myself and a beautiful bouquet of flowers,,,,It was one of those special moments in our marriage. I had been feeling pressured with an unending to do list and preparing for a missions trip. I was sharing with Tony how stressed I was before leaving to have a quick dinner with Vickie. When I returned home, Tony suprised me with this beautiful bouquet. He just wanted to bless and encourage me.  Yes, he's sweet and thoughtful and let me just put it out there once and for all, HE IS ALL MINE :) I was surprised by the number of people who liked the post. I suppose many are "curious" what a pastor's marriage look like...is it perfect? Is it easier because both of us are pastors? I thought I share a few pictures and thoughts on the subject.   Firstly, our marriage is not perfect - it's just like yours - there are always up and downs, the good and the bad, the happy and the sad, the sweet and sour! In many ways, a ministers...
