  • 1) Ask for parents’ insight about how to relate with their kids Parents know their kids best! If you can, talk with the missionary parents before they come to church on Sunday, or before you meet up with them, and ask them how you can best support their kids while you are together. Some kids…

  • On March 4, every year, I will remember how thankful I am to have had the best mom. If she was still here, I would have called her, wished her a happy birthday, have sent her a beautiful bouquet because she loved flowers, and have had a nice chat about what she and my dad…

  • 1 year of war

    Yesterday we couldn’t help but reflect on the past year. It was a year like nothing we have ever experienced before.

    Kai has such a soft, loving heart. The other day before bed he said to me, “Tomorrow, it will be your day of rest!” The next morning when I woke him up he made me sit on the couch while he made my coffee, he helped me make lunch, loaded the dishwasher, and overall kept…
