A few good links today:
First, Howard and Elizabeth have completed their mammoth cycle ride from Nairobi and have arrived in Serenje! Their latest tweet said that they had a Serenje.police escort plus 10 pastors and a photographer accompanying them for the last 20 miles. Then an interview with the press and a procession with the District Commissioner to the hospital. Brilliant news - and it's not too late to sponsor their efforts to raise the money to build an operating theatre. Can't wait to see the photos of the final procession into Serenje!
You know that I love Shauna Niequist's writings, so I really enjoy following her blog. This week she talked about "enneagrams"- all about personality types. Fascinating stuff - and more here
I loved this post from the "One Pink Toothbrush" blog - so true.
And this post from Molly Piper may well help out on the domestic front - so good to share our time-saving and sanity-maintaining ideas, perhaps especially for those with small children! If I'm organised I try to cook double quantities and feeze some. I also often freeze a "meal for 1" out of a family meal for those frequent occurances in our house when a teenager has 20 minutes from coming in til going out again!
Simon's written about the Volunteer event at the 7pm meeting tomorrow - it's going to be a fun evening featuring awards and celebrating the amazing volunteers that make Kerith work. So please come to your usual meeting and come back in the evening - doughnuts too! Oh yes, and someone very close to me will be wearing a suit! Hopefully see you there.
Can't wait for all that's ahead tomorrow at Kerith. Now for a Fun family evening of squashing altogether on the sofa whilst we watch "Take me out"!
