Alto Alberdi Building/Work

I arrived back in June to lots of nice changes at the building. I drove up to find the front of the building had been painted. That was just the beginning. Shortly there after one of the big windows was cleaned up and the window bars redone. Nice! Lots more light in the auditorium. Hugo had added a long needed doorbell. Cristian made a new pulpit. A picture/directory of the members put together. And a new tract has been printed to hand out to our neighbors and friends. There's been some rearrangings. ALL very nice. Very useful. Looks great! Below you will see a slide show of some of these changes....

LST/2011

We've been blessed to receive two LST teams thus far this year. The first team arrived in May. A group from Harding University. Brittany Shelton, Mary Arnold and Caroline Arnold. This team also worked in passing out more fliers in the streets and universities. From this effort, I have picked up new students after the winter holidays.

The second team arrived in June. Mary Stephens and Vicki Grubbs from Texas. This was Mary's third trip to Cordoba. Mary and other women she knows in Texas have been sending handwork to the community where I live on the mountain. This trip Mary and Vicki were invited to teach some new handwork to the ladies there. We spent a delightful Saturday afternoon teaching young girls and older women how to knit dish cloths. The women in the States had sent lots of "Peaches 'n Cream" yarn just for the occasion. A service rendered in the name of Jesus. I've been invited back to continue these classes later in the Spring. This is all good....praying as we reach out and touch other lives....

Mother's 90th

May 7 we had a party! Friends gathered from several states and the surrounding area to celebrate mother's 90th birthday. Many know mother as Grace, Gracie, Grandma, Big Nana, Aunt Grace, Grandma Grace. For Darlene and me she's Mom. I found a Mother's Day card with 3 verbs that perfectly describes Mom's life: Love, Live and Laugh. And... I added one more verb to describe her life "Christian". She's my hero and my Mom. I'm so blessed.
