Goodness, I am falling in love with this family everyday! Pat & Debbie have taken 27 (I believe) children into their home since God called them to Thailand. Currently, they have 19 beautiful souls they are pouring into. Many of the older girls can speak English well enough to carry on a conversation. "Conversations" with the younger ones consist mostly of a blank stare, wide smile, and desperate look to an older sibling for translation. Every day I get to know a couple of them better. Like most people, they are more willing to open up when you get them one-on-one. God has given them many talents for musical instruments, singing, athletics, cooking, and so on. Please keep each of them in your prayers as God continues to reveal Himself to them, and join me as I thank God for people like Pat & Debbie who were willing to get uncomfortable for God's glory. I love you!!
I'm thrilled to hear about your adventures in words that could only come from you! (Whilest and whereupon were my favorites. :].) Could I have your emai address? I only have your LeTourneau one. I love you!!! Can't wait to hear (read) more.
