Dion's random ramblings

Another tough day in Africa! A broken bed is a sign of a good marriage!

We've had such an amazing weekend! The weather has been great, I haven't been too busy, and so we've been spending some time doing what we like most - having fun as a family (they say a broken bed is a sign of a good marriage... Megie and I had to replace our bed yesterday... Ha ha! Although the bed broke as I sat on it to tie my shoe (a split in one of the supports finally gave way). Still, we're blessed!

This morning I decided not to cycle - it was too hot, I had done 43km's yesterday, and I wanted to go to Church http://www.coronation.org.za I'm glad I made this choice! The service was wonderful. Now, we're having a quick swim and then we're off to lunch with our new friend Rob and Tracey Katz (Rob is the former CEO of Microsoft Africa... I'm trying to convince him to get a Mac!)

Life is good and I am thankful!

  • "...the bed broke as I sat on it to tie my shoe". Sure, Dion, I believe you. Many wouldn't, but I do...

    Then again, I'm just showing my jealous streak due to the fact that I've been without my wife since 11 January and will probably not be able to see her until just after Easter.

    You NEVER told me at the Screening Committee that celibacy would be a requirement for Phase One. If I was called to that, I would have become a Catholic priest, not a Methodist minister!

    All jokes aside, I trust that your time with your dear wife was a blessed one. These times are SO precious to us. The longer we are apart, the more I appreciate the sacrifice that my wife and family are making to allow me to follow God's call.

    Blessings,
    Steven
