So what has been happening? Well, not much and a lot at the same time. April 3-5 we had our annual church family camp. It was a huge blessing. I spent most the time with the kids or preparing for the kids, but was very encouraged by the lessons and reminders of the amazing plan of God for our salvation and Jesus' sacrifice. He followed through to the last little detail and prophecy even in His suffering on the cross. All this for the love and restoration of His lost creation that had long ago rejected Him.

Following the retreat I had a few days of quickly getting things together for two weeks of down time. At the time I thought it would be just one week. April 9th was sinus surgery. I am so thankful for the opportunity to have this surgery done. The doctor encountered a lot of infection that was building up and had no way of healing on its own. (That is why it is now two weeks of rest.) So now I am hanging at home and getting better. But if you know me, I am not being totally idle. I have gotten my Brazilian and American taxes down and a few odds and ends slowly each day. The best part has been a much needed rest.

Well, I am off for now and will write more later.
