Bible Club

The kids and I joined Aunt Deb at a Bible club that was held in a low-income housing complex where she works with Afghan refugees. The kids had a great time and the most exciting part for me was we met Ethiopians - both an adopted daughter that was there helping with the program and two little Ethiopian girls that live there. Tomorrow we are going back and I'm going to meet the little girls' parents. I can see why my sister enjoys working with the refugee families - they were very kind and welcoming (about four of my children had to borrow bathrooms).


Alyssa and James were trying to convince Elijah to join in the games - it takes him a while to warm up sometimes.


My sister has a big advantage with the Afghan families; she can speak their language. I spend a lot of time smiling and nodding.


I think this picture is so cute of Aunt Deb - it captures her enthusiasm.
