It's raining again. I'm beginning to relate to Noah; should I build an ark?
I went to the Avon Walk for a Cure this morning in Paseo Colon with Ileana and Jessica this morning. Jess ran while Ileana and I walked. It's always amazing to see how many people turn out, especially when most of them are in this vivid pink. We saw Judy, Margaret, Monica, and a few other students at the end of the race. Thank goodness that Alberto picked Ile, Jess and I up. A bus would have been packed, and there wasn't a taxi in sight (surprisingly...) but, with Alberto driving, I made it home by 10:30 am, just in time for church!
I'm always impressed when someone from the Canadian Baptist Ministries (CBM http://www.cbmin.org/cbm/home ) speaks. No matter who it is, or where they're from, there is such a passion for people and for Christ in their words. This morning, Mr. Guthrie spoke, not about his specific work, but about how we need to live a missional life. Everything we do for others builds them up, and in turn, prepares the way for God to work in their lives. I wish I could have been there, to ask some questions, and to have some lunch! I miss lunch at church.
So now I'm listening to podcasts, trying to get my head around the plans for the week. We're moving full throttle into holiday prep, and I'm excited, nervous, and beginning to be stressed. December will be a busy two weeks, but then the six weeks of holidays will be fantastic. Any one want to go to Panama with me?
Let's hope the rain stops so I can run up to the corner store. Cassie will not be pleased if I don't go; we both need food!
