tim & lisa cocking

Yikes. Things have been crazy! First of all, there’s our daily existance:

THE ONE ON THE RIGHT! Don’t even think anything else. But it’s that, times 3. Then add to that normal insanity, starting from last Friday:

Friday night: Tim sick all night
Saturday: Tim sick all day; Lisa take girls to visit Grandma Peg (Lisa’s grandma)
Saturday night: Lisa sick all night
Sunday: Lisa sick all day; Tim play in both services, coming home between sets to take care of the kids
Monday: our (only) car in the shop all day
Tuesday: get car from the shop at 12:00, just in time for 1:00 dentist appointments for all three kids (their first)
Wednesday (today): take Micah to the doctor for lingering stomach problems. She’s put on the BRAT diet, and promptly becomes one when she can’t eat what she wants for dinner. (for those not in the know, it stands for bananas, rice, applesauce and toast)

Gee, I can’t wait to see what we do tomorrow!

On a better note, today was the official un-shrinkwrapping of the windows. The weather’s supposed to stay above freezing, at least. And we desperately needed some fresh air in this place! We are thankful for the little things! Tomorrow we hope to take the kids to the playground. We’re all going a bit stir crazy

Here is a great way to stay up to date on the JESUS film. Go to Google News and on the left side of the page is a link that says “news alerts”. Follow that link and put in “jesus film” as the search term, then any time that “jesus film” comes up in the news you get an email link to the story. Today it sent me a link to this article in Missions Network News.

Over time as you read the articles you get a really good sense as to how widespread and ubiquitous the use of the JESUS film is around the world.

This month’s prayer letter is in the mail. I send a couple of prayer letters each year by snail mail to those who usually get it by e-mail. If if you are one of those look for it in your mailbox in the next day or two. If you’re reading this in England, you’ll still get an email version. It is also up on our website now.
