Random Happenings

Last month, we made a trip to the city of Baguio in the Philippines. One of Jen's Tagalog students will be moving there next month, and we were helping them scout things out and get plugged in to their globalization ministry there (see next post if you don't know what globalization is). I can't post pics with them because of security concerns for places they travel, so you'll just have to make do with this one of Steve & me at sunset. Beautiful city in the mountains. And chilly enough to need a jacket, even in hot season!
Both Steve & I had our birthdays in the last little bit, and we enjoyed a nice meal out with good friends to celebrate. Steve also threw a big party for me with our coworkers, and we had another smaller gathering for Steve's, but this was the only pic we got. :)
So Mt. Mayon, the volcano down by our tribal areas in Bicol, has been getting some attention. Isn't it amazing? It does this often enough (every couple years) that they don't expect any casualties or property damage, since no one lives very close, and the ones in the 6-km "danger zone" have been evacuated. It is likely to last several weeks. Pray with us that it stays controlled like this.
