An Africa Story – Hot Off the Press

June 6, 2009 Linny Saunders29 Comments

For many, many years we have read YWAM Biographies written by Janet and Geoff Benge. They are some of the best books we have ever read – EVER! I often have read one of their books aloud to our family on long trips as we drive down the road. On more than one occasion we…

I sent Elizabeth in to lay on the bed so I could change her diaper. I came in to find this…. Yes, her sweet feet are dangling……. Her hands and arms all contorted – but sound asleep… Sweet baby girl……Who could ever imagine this treasure in a big orphanage for the rest of her life??…

True Story Tuesday – Tom (and Trixie) Part 2

June 2, 2009 Linny Saunders7 Comments

Two weeks ago on True Story Tuesday I shared an outrageously weird story of meeting someone whom I would never have expected to meet – some 20 years later. Through a series of crazy events I met the “other woman” that my boyfriend from high school had been cheating on me with. If you missed…

June 1, 2009 Linny Saunders22 Comments

We had such a wonderful miracle of answered prayer the other day that I just had to share it this Memorial Box Monday. I love these God-sized stories of His complete faithfulness – and how He surprises us with very, very, good things – when we least expect it!! If you are new to A…

There are some VERY exciting things happening in Uganda – one of which I burst into tears crying with hysterical joy when I heard….. but I can’t tell you yet…….any guesses? The team has planted 359 trees of the 1500 so far. They will serve as a protective/privacy barrier around the African Hearts little boys…

The trip to Greeley went well. Thank you to all who prayed for our safety. The little guy came home with two new colors: bright orange and “powder” blue (Isaiah’s request). We had a good time and pulled in the driveway at 12:42am. Isaiah will most likely have surgery in just a few weeks. It…

Grateful/Thankful Thursday & Our Next Home

May 28, 2009 Linny Saunders22 Comments

I am leaving in a few minutes for Greeley again, but I couldn’t let the day pass without sharing a speck of gratefulness/thankfulness. Albeit short, I can’t resist. I am thankful for watermelon that we enjoyed in our new watermelon bowl the night before Dw, Emma and Graham left. We got the sweet little bowl…

They’re Off!!

Bright and early Dw, Emma and Graham went to the church to meet some of the team to head to the airport for their trip to Africa. I went to send my family off with bunches of hugs and kisses and to snap a picture of some of the team. They are meeting up with…
