Friends




Dear Family and Friends,

Due to the wonders of Facebook, which I joined a couple of months ago, we were able to connect with Crystal, our Chinese "daughter" in London. Crystal stayed with us as an exchange student two summers ago. She is studying in the UK at a university an hour from the city. On Sunday, she and her lovely friend, Vicki, took the train in for the day. We walked around Buckingham Palace and had lunch at Hard Rock Cafe. Crystal is such a beautiful and gentle person. Micah and I cherished the time spent with her.

Before meeting up with Crystal and Vicki, Micah and I went to the Hillsong Church, which meets in a large theater in London. It was great fun to worship with such a dynamic group. The worship band had 16 members!

On Monday, we met up with our friend Rich, whom Jerry and I know from a summer missionary program that we all were a part of, in Quito, Ecuador in 1982! Yikes, we are getting really old! Rich met us at the Tate Modern, which was fabulous! Here are Rich and Micah at the Tate. Rich is a film critic in London, so Micah could ask all his film/movie star questions!



We are doing well, loving the quiet evenings with my aunt and uncle, but missing Jerry and Jess!

Grace and Peace,
Cathi

Well???!!! Had he heard of the fantastic new movie, "Diamond Dog Caper"? The movie in which the star is a furry friend of yours?
Sounds like you guys are having SO much fun. I bet it is sort of nice to have just the 2 of you to get some quality time together.
Miss you, love you!
