Navidad 2010 - La Flor de Venezuela

 










 








On the evening of December 14th we went with friends to a cultural site called La Flor de Venezuela. It was beautifully decorated for Christmas, and they had various musical groups ranging from elementary through high school.  There was also an area with kiosks for purchasing Christmas gifts, most of which were pretty standard, but some of which featured interesting handmade products.  We had a wonderful time and it helped lead us more into feeling a little Christmas spirit.  With highs each in the upper 80s it's been tough to "feel" Christmassy, since we're accustomed to cold weather at this time of the year.  So last night really helped a lot.  We are so thankful to be here, and appreciate your prayers.  Much Love, Dan and Nancy

Back in Swing, Seminary Next Week

We returned from our brief trip to the States on November 16th.  Since then Nancy has been catching up on her work with the financial side of the ministry here, updating accounts, creating needed reports, etc.  Dan has been focusing more on his dissertation, and actually got 6 pages of a new chapter written this week, which is very exciting.  Today we picked up a used car, so we finally have our own transportation, which is a huge answer to prayer.  We have another week of Seminary classes next week.  David Cosby will be teaching on The Person and Ministry of the Holy Spirit, and Wilmer Perez will be teaching Inductive Bible Study.  Please pray for God to move powerfully in their classes.  Thank you for your continued support and prayers.  If you want to keep up with us more frequently, you can befriend Dan on Facebook.  He posts things on there fairly regularly.  Much Love, Dan and Nancy
