Let's call this one.....Learning!

Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta, Eta, Theta....more to come tomorrow.  Hope to make it through the end of the alphabet by next week. The kids keep asking if we know a word with the letters we know already.  I am sure we do, but we are going to stick to the program and soon we should know "Lord", "My" and "Helper".  I am so excited to be learning this along with them. As we continue to learning our Biblical Greek (Kione Greek) we will be able to study the New Testament with a deeper understanding of what was written in the original text. 

We have been enjoying the weather here in Elgin.....doors and windows have been open to allow that beautiful breeze through the house. We have been told that this is a little cooler weather than they normally have this time of year, but we will enjoy if for now.  Fall is one of my favorite seasons.....with pumpkins, apples, and all the fun fall festivals.....and the beautiful colors of fall.  Haven't seen any trees that have changed as of yet, but we will have our cameras ready.  :)

John has mentioned that he has been learning a lot already in this first few days of the Harvest residency.  He comes home each night and shares what they talked about....I know it is only a part and that is a lot for me.  I pray that he is taking good notes. :) 

Please continue to pray  us.....I have to be honest I am missing home a little bit more than I thought I would.  What keeps me going is that I know we are following God's will for our lives. Things are not always easy, but God is always with us! 

Many thanks to all who have been praying and continue to pray.  Also, a somewhat public thank you to all who have supported us in this journey.  God is an amazing provider....we just have to have faith!
