"Fear breads a deadening caution, a holding back, a stagnant waiting until people no longer can recall what they are waiting for or saving themselves for. When we fear failure more than we love life; when we are dominated by thoughts of what we might have been rather than by thoughts of what we might become; when we are haunted by the disparity between our ideal self and our real self; when we are tormented by guilt, shame, remorse, and self-condemnation, we deny our faith in the God of love."

Still here




Hi all. Borrowing some internet to check in. For those of you that have passed on toys in your packages, I've got some pics of the children that have received them. Thanks so much. These kids have never seen toys as such and are always so excited to get stuffed animals, cars, dolls, balls etc.

Not much else occurring here. Our missions have gone well without issue thus far and we take every one as serious as the one before. Safety first and stuff!

Anyway, not much else to report.

Hello Beloved! The pics of the children were wonderful, you included! I mailed more toys and goodies yesterday, so more is on the way to your new address. I had the package in the car, but had to change the address before going to the Post Office. Isn't that wonderful that you've had so much sent that you received your own mail address!! Too bad that doesn't work for the internet service! We love you, and hope you get your internet service soon, even if you do have to pay for it yourself. You know, we can't be too careful with our tax dollars!!!
