Rain in Perth


Today we had our first cold, rainy day since we have been in Perth and oh man was it ever raining. I have to say it was a nice break from the heat (we don't have air conditioning so it is usually very hot in our apartment) but I don't think I would want it to last longer then one day.  
I have been busy this week planning Friendship Sunday. It is a day where the kids at the church invite  their friends to come to church with them. We are doing Kids Style Worship in the main church and then we are heading over to a swimming pool across the street to have a pool party. It is looking like it will be a very fun day for the kids, and a very busy day for me. I feel like it is a lot for me to do when I have so little experience with children but I have been blessed with some great people to help me out.
Jeremy is still loving worship ministry and comes home every day really excited about something new they have planned for the young adults service or some great conversation he had with someone at the church. Since we have been here he has been playing at all three services on Sunday but this week he doesn't have to actually lead any of them and he is looking forward to a little break (even though he will still be playing guitar). He has been talking with another guy at the church who plays piano and singings and they are thinking about playing some gigs around our area (just for fun....and a little extra money) just like he used to do at home. I think he is pretty excited about getting that started.
We are both missing family and friends at home. I'm really missing Landon, our nephew, today. I know that he has already gotten a lot bigger since we have left. I can't wait until he comes to visit. We are thinking of you all daily. Please keep sending e-mails we love to hear about what's going on with everyone.
