I’m off to the South…a trip that will log way more 1000s of kilometers on my mom’s cute PT Cruiser than I care to acknowledge at this point!  But I’ll see good friends along the way and I’ll get to brag about BFA’s students in two churches, so it’s all for a good cause.

I leave you with two pictures I shot in Paris last April.  They struck me as very different yet similar forms of safety–and made me wonder what it is in my life that makes me feel safer.  So…what makes you feel secure?  What’s your “security blanket”?  If you were in deep trouble or stressed beyond belief, what would you reach out to for comfort?  (Other than God, of course…!)  Seriously, I’m curious.  And FYI, I’ll be travelling with my own form of comfort:  a huge, floppy dog (stuffed animal) that is SO comfortable to use as a pillow in the car!  Ask Mari Ellen–I bought her the same one in a different color for Christmas last year.

Oh, and Storch seniors, I’m still missing some of your addresses.  Email them to me quickly so I can get the DVDs off to you.  I’ll still be checking emails waaaaay too often as I travel!  Hey, a missionary’s entitled to an addiction too, you know.

My love to every single one of you!!

Michele

Michele, a PT Cruiser…how cool is that!!!!!  Say HI to Sally and to any others I know that you bless with your presence.  We are back in the quiet village of Riedlingen…empty house.  We did have a wonderful trip…3,600 km total!  The angels were definitely on duty even when I had a bit of an anxiety attack in Manchester when there was heavy rain and a scary sidewind! How are you?

  5. Michele.  Am glad you come towards the beautiful South.  May it welcome you as the only part of the United States worth mentioning.  Where will you be?  I am in Charlotte.
