HEADING HOME

Heading home …
Karin Giger, under the auspices of InterServe, has been nursing at the local Durtlang Hospital since March. Shortly after her arrive we connected with her and adopted her into our family. Autumn and Andrew bonded immediately with her. She was much like a replacement for Auntie Harmony who had just been with us for the month of January. Karin and Harmony share many similar interests and personality traits.

In July, Karin referred her friend, Tabea Laslo, to us with a request that she come and teach at Silver Oak School for September and October. Each of them has strong Christian convictions and has had several international experiences (in Egypt and Israel, respectively). They have both engaged actively with the local culture. On Friday (Nov 4), they left Aizawl to visit other points in northern India before heading home to Schorndorf, Germany.

Service opportunities, like these, abound through out the world. Perhaps one of them is calling you!

Hi again, another short comment..I actually wanted to comment on the 'Road Sign' post, but since the comments link is missing, guess I'll just have to do it here.
And yeahh..all those road signs!
I've travelled those roads so many times I've practically learnt them by heart. You didn't mention my favorite one though...you must've missed it or it may have been removed and replaced by a newer 'adage' -
"Safety on road - safe tea at home" :). I've always wondered where they get those stuffs from and who thought them up!
