Just in case you are wondering, I’m still ALIVE! It’s been a long time since I’ve caught up with any Singaporeans or heard any “loh”, “lahs” & “meh”…kinda miss them it

Dec was quite a fruitful month for us.

We had our Navidad con las estrellas. This was one of the projects we worked together as a team.

Thank God for 2008. I cant believe how time has flown!! Thank God for His faithfulness in my life. I am growing really fond of Chile. I am grateful for all the friendship i’ve established, the people I’ve known, the language I’ve acquired, the job i’ve grown to love, the team that he’s brought together in this far away land. 2008 will be a year I’ll remember for life =)

Anyhow, i shared my first teaching in Spanish last week! Sad that it took me so long but i was really ecstatic as the Lord helped me to overcome my fears to share my heart in Spanish and without looking much at my notes! It was a tremendous breakthrough for me…yeah!

The Lord also answered our prayers faithfully. We prayed that God will bring new students to our business. Normally Jan and Feb are very cold months in Chile cos everyone will go on vacation, moreover we are in the economic crisis thus people may not wanna take courses. But the Lord never fail to surprise us. We had quite a number of new students in the past weeks and we have just started an English class for the kids =) It’s true that when we put Him first, He will never short change us!
