Happy Thanksgiving

Today is Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving is a public holiday here in America that we can participate in despite not being American or understanding the history.

Being thankful to the Lord in all circumstances is a wonderful discipline and blessing.

Here are five things we are most thankful for this year:

  1. Our family – those near and far.
  2. Our jobs – we excitedly look forward to everyday, knowing how privileged we are to be missionaries.
  3. Our partners – your prayers, encouragement and generosity still humbles us.
  4. Our visit to South Africa during June and July.
  5. Our hobbies – having the opportunity to pursue our interest: playing tuba, knitting, reading and swimming (guess which hobby belongs to who …)

May you also take a moment to thank the Lord for the many blessings in your life.
