Another Happy Mail Day!

Friday was a really good day. Not only was it the first day of my extra long weekend ( I didn’t have any kids to babysit), we were blessed to receive a letter from Niyomugabo in Rwanda. I’ll share it with you.

He starts with “Beloved Sponsor, Your child Niyomugabo is greeting you in the name of Jesus Christ.  Niyomugabo and family are fine and thank God and believe you are also fine.

Here, we experience a dry season but sometime back, we have been receiving some rain. Those who grow crops, are also happy because they will get a good harvest.

He believe you do not have a problem of earthquake over there. If you have children, greet them.

He came from school, is in holidays and there is no problem and his studies are moving on well. In Rwanda we are in the time of remembering our people who died in the 1994 genocide. Remembering our people ends in July and we wish you a good Easter. We love God and continue to be near Him. We remember that Jesus died and resurrected for sake of our sins.

May God protect, give you strength, give you peace.”

 

It was so exciting to get another letter from him. I have now received letters from both of my correspondent boys, but none from Alejandro, our sponsor boy, yet. I contacted Compassion Canada and their looking into it for me. I hope to hear from him soon. 

Did you receive a letter from your Sponsor child lately? I would love to hear about it!

So, I was gonna write a nice long post today, but then I remembered that I had a bunch of cute pictures in my camera just waiting to be displayed. So, enjoy… I couldn’t think of a cute saying for each picture, cause It would take me a long time. I’m just not witty like that. But, I hope you enjoyed the pics! Have a great day!!

Loving on others

As most of you know, we sponsor 1 child financially and we correspond with 2 more. This has been such a blessing for us. This has really opened our eyes to  what life is like in other countries and also to how much love we can feel for someone we have never met. These 3 boys are so special to us and it will be a sad time when our correspondence will have to end. But this is not the only way to love on others. This is only one of the few. It could be helping the homeless, either by serving at your local soup kitchen or even as simple as dropping a few groceries into the helping hands bin at your grocery store. It may seem like a very small act to you but it could be life changing for someone else. or it could be as simple as a… It could even be as easy as letting someone cut in front of you, either in the store line or in your car on the road. Loving on others is so easy that most of us seldom realize how many opportunities we have each and every day to do so! What ki...
