Wishing you a Blessed Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I have to admit, I'm missing my family and the big turkey dinner this year.

Turkeys are not found in Tanzania ... so we have to compromise, with chicken. But, I brought over a can of Ocean Spray cranberries, some turkey gravy mix, and even a box of Stove Top stuffing to share with my newfound Canadian friends who are going to celebrate Thanksgiving with me ... it will have to do, but it will be NOTHING like my sister-in-law's turkey dinner, that's for sure!

Anyway, Thanksgiving isn't just about the food... it's about pausing to be thankful for all God's blessings in our lives. You're one of them to me.

I wanted to send this quick note to you to say THANKS for being in my life and letting me share this mission journey with you. It's so great to have family and friends who care and I just want you to know I truly pray for you often and am thankful to God for you.

I hope you have a blessed Thanksgiving. As you say grace, please pray for the children of VOH and take a moment to thank Him for all His goodness in your life. Before you dig into your turkey this weekend, take 15 seconds to enjoy this clip from my new 5-year friend, Emmerenciana (Emmy for short), who wanted to sing for me ... she gets it!



HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
