Dear Friends,

Some of you have inquired about our teammates, and since they're such an important part of our lives, I thought I'd fill you in on them. Besides seeing each other at normal church functions, we meet every Monday to pray, brainstorm, and eat lunch. Every once in a while when we've been taking ourselves too seriously, we play a good competitive card game too. Loopie and I are still recovering from that last match, but we will get our revenge on the guys.

Leslie is known by everyone (and I mean everyone!) around town as the crazy fisherman. He's managed to wriggle his way onto the board of the local International School, and his impact on the community is seen in many other ways as well, not the least of which are the many Bible studies he has begun. Loopie is the quintessential missionary wife, who always magically manages to throw together food for everyone Leslie brings home for spur-of-the-moment meals, and she does it with a smile on her face! Her laid-back, cheerful personality stabilizes us all, and I honestly think she is one of the most wonderful Christian women I know. She and I share the teaching responsibilities for the children at church, and she takes care of Hannah once a week so that I can keep my sanity.

Leslie and Loopie have four boys, and Hannah squeals with excitement every time she sees them. They teach her important things like how to play Ring Around the Rosy. I never have to worry about her when the boys are around, because they take such good, big brotherly care of her. Logan the Philosopher always has thought-provoking comments about the Bible, Zack, the impulsive one, keeps us in stitches, Tate eats all of his peas and tells you, "Thank you, they're delicious!", and Thomas knows how to play with children from every kind of background and always makes them feel welcome. All the boys put the grownups to shame when it comes to the church's scripture memory work. Are you parents drooling with envy or what?

Please thank God for providing us with such wonderful teammates, and pray that God will continue to bless our unity.

Love,
Diane Reese (with Marcus and Hannah)

 


It's not ALL fun and games in PNG, but life can be sweet.
