Merry Christmas!

"For God so love the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. for god did not send his son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him." John 3:16-17


"this is how god showed his live among us: he sent his one and only son into the world that we might have live through him." 1 john 4:9

As the Christmas season has been approaching Ruth and I have found it hard to 'feel Christmas' . Christmas for us is: family, close friends, snow, seeing deer, having a fresh cut Christmas tree & snow! Seeing as how we don't really have any of those things here we get creative and do what we can! We listen to our favorite Christmas music almost all the time, we enjoy the advent wreath and tell the girls that Jesus is the true meaning of Christmas, and this year after watching a Christmas play at our church the girls decided that they too wanted to perform a Christmas play for their daddy! I've been thinking more and more this season about how when we decided to be go'ers and  not senders for God's plan of reaching the nations we too were making a choice of sacrifice for the grandparents. With THAT in mind, during the girls Christmas play I couldn't help but record it and make a 5min video to share! Enjoy :) 

Merry Christmas from Indonesia and A happy new year!

Sorry the video isn't as 'clear' as it could be... Our video camera decided to break last week on Chloe's birthday! :( For now we'll just have to use our normal camera for a while. life goes on...
