cultural night

About 2 weeks ago we had a culture night, where each of us was given the opportunity to present his/her culture a little bit. Since I didn't really have any pictures from Germany (only of friends+family), I did my presentation on Thailand.

If you go to the picture gallery you will find some pictures of that night.
be blessed, Hanna

Rainy days...

It's been a week since our gardening day and all we have had since then is rain and more rain, mixed with fog and lots of mist, even hail one day...
which makes it really nice to have a warm home to stay in... :O)

this weeks lecture is on development of children... very interesting, I'm learning a lot... although a lot of it is not entirely new (after all I am the oldest of 6 kids), it is still very good to be reminded and to go into a little more details...
It is really amazing to see how uniquely and detailed God has created each one of us.

later today we (or at least some of us) are off to Lausanne where Brian Doerksen will be having a concert. Yeah! music! This base is way to quiet for me... ;-)

In Him,
Hanna

Gardening Day!!!

today we had a gardening day... where our entire base was out in the grounds cutting hedges weeding beds, turning to compost....
I actually enjoyed it... I mean, sometimes to smell was really bad... ;-)
but it was nice to do something practical for once compared to all that lecture, studying, journaling, etc.
God was kind to us... because the entire last week it's been raining cats and dogs and today it was beautiful sunshine... we could even see Mont Blanc today -> for the first time since I got here. It is absolutely breathtaking.

Well, I'll get back to you soon... I will go and try to take a picture of Mont Blanc so that I can show you afterward. get back to you soon.
Love, hanna

Topical Study

Hi there...
well, what can I say? These last two weeks have been so busy... so tiring and exhausting... I don't mean to complain... and it was all very good and very blessing, but still I can feel the drain from it.
During the Plumbline Ministry week we had three meetings every day!!!! Morning, afternoon and evening and in between we still had to do our work-duties and other practical things...
and last week too... the times we were not in the class room or busy with work-duty we had to prepare and read up on the topic we had chosen for our study...
btw, I did a topical study on the gifts of the spirit (spiritual gifts)..
Thank God, this week the topic is not quite as intense!

Otherwise I'm doing good... learning a lot... and also God doing a lot in my life...

Luv ya,
Hanna
