Christmas in the air…

Even without the snow and cold Christmas is still in the air here on campus. If you stay on this page for a minute or two a video will start that highlights our Christmas celebration here last week. It ranged from upbeat Christmas carols, classical music, a commissioning by Lorne Cunningham (founder of YWAM) for a group of DTS teams leaving for Africa, and a congo line to the beat of Drummer Boy to finish it all off. Hope you enjoy getting a little picture of a worship celebration here. The picture may be a little fuzzy, I do that so it doesn’t take too long to load for you.  
 
On another note, in the photo album you will see a few shots of our room. The focal point of the pictures is the string by the cieling. The other day Ben and I got an envelope in the mail. We were so excited (as we always are when we get mail), but you can imagine our shock when the envelope contained over 20 Christmas cards and encouragement notes from people in our church! It totally made our day! Thank you to everyone at Kilcona for taking the time to do that, and thank you to the missions team for coordinating it! We couldn’t wipe the smiles off of our faces all day, and with the super busy weekend we are having trying to get all of our work done before we leave on Wednesday, it couldn’t have been better timed! We strung them all up and will continue to add any letters we get in the next six months. We’ll see just how many times we can go around our room!
