transitioning

Today I went over to the Dempseys along with 25 or so of the recent graduates involved in the ministry here for a transitioning seminar. It was definitely a milestone moment or something like that. Bernardo, Wandson, and Emerson (in the pic from left) are guys that have I've accompanied in their discipleship with Christ over the past 4+ years! Bernardo should graduate at the end of this year. Emerson has been working for the past year with his computer science degree. And Wandson just got a job a few months ago (electrical engineering... he and Bernardo). We talked about how God is calling us to be labors and how important it is to remember that as we are "working" or looking for a "job". I put those things in "quotes" because laboring in the kingdom is the real work, and our work place is one of the contexts that we glorify God.

Just a short Lucy update - her hair is starting to grow back. A few weeks ago it started falling out in the front and now you can see little hairlings poking out of her scalp. It seems pretty thick. We're still unsure what color it is or will be... is it reddish or a lighter brown? We're still not sure.
