Merry Christmas from Quito, Ecuador! |
Our boys hang out with some of Dave's students from Korea, Ecuador, and Iran |
Alumni… their visits back from college bring to mind the proverb “Leadership is planting trees under whose shade you’ll never sit.” Still it’s nice to see the saplings!
Alliance Academy... all three boys are now in our school full-time and sang their hearts out in the Christmas concerts. You can see Aaron (in a green shirt) here in last year's program. We'll let you know when this year's program is available on the web!
Vista Seminar… where Dave just presented to the broader community three classes on World Religions and Cults.
Entre Nosotras… the international-themed Christmas party of this book club for AAI moms gave Beth the chance to sport a sombrero for her beloved Mexico.
Year three for Beth on the Entre Nosotras team |
A definite highlight of the year for our family |
Refreshed… and relieved to have friends for the journey—that’s how Beth feels after hosting her weekly mom’s group. This is our fifth year!
A sampling of the (mostly) happy chaos of Beth's group |
Anonymous donors… continue to bless us with the opportunity to receive a $200 boost in our account for each new monthly supporter who signs up (until February 28). Please consider this great chance to increase your giving impact. Our work only happens with your help. Thank you so much!
Love in Christ,
The SAAVEDRA Family
