On the 27th and 28th of Jan, we had a family reunion with our family,
Udi and Jen and our grandkids, and also Bubuy and Wila, Jubab’s birth Dad and Mum and his brothers. We had a wonderful time catching up and swimming in the ocean and having fun meals together including a pig cooked on a spit.
Our daughter Jen has come of age. She has a new glow about her and a new desire to walk with and to serve the Lord. She is involved now in leading women’s bible studies and we noticed a new strength about her that comes from a deepening relationship with Jesus. She is now 30 years old! Udi was ordained as one of the elders of the church in Kauyunan and has remained faithful in the things committed to him.
He also is maturing. He is now 32 years old.
Our Grandkids: Charly is 8 and is in Gr. 2 and is as much a little princess as ever. Clint is 4 and is growing up and becoming much more independant.
He is going to day care and is learning to be a big boy. Clint was always sidling up to Grandpa and sitting quietly next to him.
Here is Jubab lying across the laps of his birth Dad and Mum, Bubuy and Wila,
and his brothers who are aged 23, 21, 18, and 15. Jubab was delighted to be taller than his Mum, Wila and to be almost as tall as his brothers!
The Lord has blessed us with a beautiful extended family!
Bubuy and Wila have continued to serve faithfully in the church in Tumpagon.
They are some of the most hospitable people you could ever meet and a wonderful family!
Pictures speak volumes! You can see how happy we’ve been in the past couple of weeks to be back with our loved ones!
Lots of Love…….Paul, Deb and Jubab XXXXX
