We live in the Middle East. We have skills that we want to use to be a blessing to those around us. And we are also being blessed as we learn the local language and culture. Lucas, Caspian and Zoe are learning a lot too. They pick things up and cross cultural barriers much quicker than us. We are part of a bigger story that involves community both where we are as well as back in Aotearoa NZ, and ultimately we are part of God's story. We share the story in many places- the classroom, the clinic, the football field, with our neighbours, with our teachers and with our new friends.
