Psalm 143:8


           Let the morning bring me word of 
                     your unfailing love, 
          for I have put my trust in you.
                Show me the way I should go,
            for to you I entrust my life       


Psalm 143:8

Track Team


Today was the last day of Track and the Spring season seemed to go by lightening fast! Rob really enjoyed working with the students as they sharpened their skills, and I think Andrew didn't mind having Dad as a coach !

Grand Prix

Last Saturday were the Awana Grand Prix Races !!  All of the  English and German children have been so excited for this event and it was a success :)  You can see their excitement as they cheer on their fellow racers to the finish line.





 

Here are some of the car designs
& the races.




We are all so grateful for all the Awana leaders that pour the love of God into these children !  Thank you !! 




Prayer

  On Friday morning a 4 year old little girl named Jennifer was hit by a car.  Please pray for her and her family as she is in critical condition in the hospital.  This has had a big impact in our small community.  Our hearts and prayers are with Jennifer, her family and those that witnessed the tragic accident.

Mother's Day Hike




For Mother's Day we went for a hike in the beautiful Black Forest.
Here we are taking a break and listening to see if we hear the Cuckoo Bird, no luck today just us Cuckoos making noise.

Banquet

Friday night  the Junior / Senior Banquet was held at Funfshilling. 
( It is much like a prom minus the dancing)  After dinner some of the juniors and seniors share their talents of music by singing and playing instruments  for everyone.   I photographed groups and couples in their hot pink room.  I have shared just a few here. 
 ( and one of Rob and I)








Wake up Call


Early wake up call for many in Kandern  on this past Sunday morning.   About 6 am this band walked up and down all the streets in Kandern !! ??  I am not really sure why still asking around.

Track Meet


Matthew,  Jacob and I got to travel on the bus with the track team on Saturday.  There was not a home track meet this year so it was great to see the team in action on the road.  The meet was in Heidelberg about three hours away.  I was grateful not to navigate the roads, its just not as easy as it looks.  Here are some photos before the downpours started.

Open House

The Elementary School is in a new building and town this year.   Saturday we had an open house to the community of Wollbach where the school is located.  It was the first real sunny & warm day in a while and the kids had a great time ~  playing baseball, getting their faces painted, learning origami,  taking fun dress up photos and enjoying some yummy snacks too.  Here are a few photos of the kids singing.   




'Great Hallelujah'!

This weekend our Church here shared their talents with the community.  The Great Hallelujah Choir preformed Saturday and Sunday night.  Let by Danny Plett.
