I’m back in the States – Norton, MA to be exact. Oh, how difficult it was to leave my precious babies at Albina, and ‘kids’ at Barza Mica. The little ones at Albina love having Corina and me with them…

As I encounter another birthday this month (forgive me for not saying which one), I am more and more grateful for the Bible’s description of what our heavenly bodies will be like. I absolutely love God’s assignment for me in…
