Your pics are amazing! I just love what you and your family are doing. We hope to do something similar in the future (but along the lines of teaching school). I pray for a fruitful rest of the year for you! Hi from Adina in Victoria

God has placed you in a beautiful area. We are so thankful that you are serving Him there.
We are praying that in your final 6 months you will be able to continue to accomplish much and that God will give you a clear direction for your next stage of serving Him!

Hi Alex, Andre and girls from Ont.
I just looked at your BEAUTIFUL pics. What an education the girls are getting as well as you two I'm sure !!! We praise the Lord for putting you in this place and keeping you safe & healthy. Can't believe it is soon time for you to return to Canada. I hope & pray our paths will cross so we can hear about your experiences personally.
May God continue to bless & keep you.
