Peace Team

This is the Peace Lutheran team from New London, Minnesota. They spent the past week sheet rocking the twin home, loving the boys, leading devotions, and blessing us. They struggled with some good questions on the impact of missions on their lives and hopefully grew from this experience. They were a wonderful blessing to the woman staff by treating us to a "spa day." Thank you!

On Sunday I was able to celebrate Christmas with the boys. Thanks to Ron Fugiel for sponsoring this event! After my first summer down, I was hit with culture shock really hard at a friends wedding. After going through the buffet line, I was unable to eat the meal because I knew the boys at Sunbeam had never had an opportunity to walk down a line of food and choice what and how much they want. I spent most of the reception outside trying to process. But, on Sunday I was able to change this. The boys were able to choose from B-B-Q chicken, chicken florentine, rice and peas, cole slaw, noodle salad, ice cream with fruit topping, and punch! I had some small gifts for them and the team contributed a wonderful afternoon of games and fun. It was a fun day for me, and I hope the boys will remember it for a long time to come.

Yummy!
