Should Fallen Pastors Be Restored?

As I was browsing around John MacArthur's website Grace to You I came across this article. I thought it might be helpful or thought provoking to some who are still pondering this question.

Should Fallen Pastors Be Restored? by John MacArthur

Happy Birthday Josiah

Josiah has been asking for quite some time to visit the zoo and so we took him and a few of his friends from church this past Saturday to celebrate his birthday.

He got them all!

Happy Birthday Eduardo

I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.

Psalm 69:30

Every day of life that God grants unto us is an occasion to praise His name. We are very thankful for the opportunites the Lord has given us to celebrate two birthdays this week. This past Tuesday after our evening bible study we celebrated Eduardo's birthday with him a few days early and Saturday we celebrated Josiah's a few days early as well.

Everyone brought something to share.

Thanksgiving In Peru

Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.

We were delighted to be able to celebrate Thanksgiving with some of our new friends that we have made here. It was a wonderful time of fellowship and thanksgiving for what God has done in our lives this year. We all had one thing in common to be thankful for; the Lord's provision of a church family and the edification it has brought to our lives these past months.

May He recieve the glory and honor and praise!

The kids helped prepare our first homemade stuffing, there is no Stovetop to be found here!

We had five states present...

It was a very delicious meal with everyone bringing something to share.

The kids had their own special table...
They are still thanking God for the day of Thanksgiving, they throughly enjoyed it!

Farewell Part 2

A few more pictures of last week's farewall party. We've already had to say good-bye to three of them this past week but we know that God has great plans for them.
