Philippians 4: 10 - 12 states "10 I rejoiced greatly in the Lord that
at last you renewed your concern for me. Indeed, you were concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it. 11 I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. 12 I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. "

The peso/dollar exchange rate has been steadily falling - just in the drop of peso to dollar exchange our support has dropped over 12% while the cost of living over here has become comparable to living in the USA.
It's always interesting to see how God provides for our needs! He truly is awesome in His power.

and as my Filipino friends say, "As long as there is rice in the house, there is enough!"

End-of-Summer Vacation

We just returned from a four day trip to Samal Island.

We stayed at a great place right on the ocean called "Captain Hook's Red Parrot Inn."

We ate fresh-picked coconut and drank the buko juice! Yummm!








Played in Hagamit Falls!!!!!

Swam in the ocean......


Could show you many more pics....but that's enough for now....

Next week school starts!!!!(August 4th)!

Stormy Ocean

The waves on the ocean were awesome while we were on vacation. It was due to a tropical storm in northern Philippines.

Coconut Boat

Half a coconut shell; a stick for the sail....and you have a coconut boat!

Eyes on the Lord
