Snowy hangs on for dear life! (or "God is the driver")

Starting Courage Homes can be stressful. Sometimes we feel like it is too big a job for us to carry.


This is the picture of Roger's journal, which he bought in Japan.
Roger recently said, “That’s me—that’s how I feel about Courage Homes! I am stuck on a car speeding up too fast for me to jump off!” But as we prayed together, God said, "The car is driving somewhere beautiful—racing down a country road towards green trees in the woods." We are glad God is the driver!

Chef Meena - apple cake りんごのケーキ

Recently Meena has been helping in the kitchen a lot. Her goal is to be able to cook something by herself soon. Today, she made an apple cake almost all by herself, with supervision from Mama.
(By the way, Meena's apron is the one Hiroko used to use when she was a child!)

美奈は最近、料理のお手伝いをしてくれます。ゴールは自分ひとりで何か作れるようになること。今日は、りんごのケーキをママのコーチを受けて、一人で作りました。
ちなみに、美奈のエプロンは、博子が小さいときに使っていたものです。

Goa ゴア

Goa is on the west coast of India-my favorite spot in India! You can see why...
ゴアはインドの西海岸にあります。休暇で行って来ました。

Beachー Meena's poem (美奈の詩 ビーチ）

Beach
The blue ocean spray brings back yesterday.
The waves so wet and foamy, crash into my face,
and leave seashells as clean as lace.
The warm sand, brings my hand, toward the land.
The seashells so exquisite, so pretty, some are cute as a kitty.
And seeing the fish answers my every wish.
