May 2006

Welcome to the first posting of our blog!
Jackie and I are hoping that this "new" technology will help us keep you updated more frequently on what is going on in our lives and how you can pray for us and church planting here in Macedonia.

As of May 22, we are all doing well.
Rebekah just got back from a week-long school trip. She was on a mountain in southern Macedonia with 200 other third and fourth graders. She had a great time and didn't seem to miss us enough!
Joshua is raring to start 1st grade this fall. He will wrap up kindergarten in June and begin school in September. He is very athletic and also our number one extrovert. He has plenty of friends and is doing well with language.
Daniel's big achievement has been learning to ride his bike with no training wheels! He is now off and rolling, but has to remember to keep his head up and look for oncoming cars. He is enjoying preschool and in particular his friendship with Stefan.

Pray for our church here in Skopje. We have a total of 5 home groups and one of them is about to "birth" a new group! We are very pleased about that, as the idea of multiplying new groups has been very slow to take hold.

We will try to give you some regular updates, so stay tuned!
Kyle
