Back in Madagascar

I arrived last Sunday and was preaching this Sunday. It started out with some demonstrations and a voting on a national referendum to change the constitution.

Pakistan Update #20

Pakistan Bible Correspondence Institute (PCBI)

The Run for Bonnie

I started at the end of the pack since I had never run a marathon before. I was in block 7, the last one to start with white jersey numbers.
