365 days married!! : ) We were able to print our wedding photos and get a beautiful flower basket to celebrate. |
Boy, time flies fast!! This blog update is way past due; we have been really busy since our last update.
First, and the most important thing is we celebrated our FIRST YEAR ANNIVERSARY in October! We are grateful God has given us the opportunity to spend the first part of our marriage on the missions field. Our relationship has strengthened and our priorities oriented together to serve the Lord. Most of the stuff we do, we do it together; if we are teaching English at the school, Lyuda teaches one class, and Yuri teaches the other right next door. When we work with a team or local pastor, visit houses, conduct programs, climb mountains, etc., we are blessed to do it together. God has surely brought us together!
Chocolate strawberry cake summed-up our celebration! |

About an hour hike to "upper" Potrerillos to work with children. Lyuda conducting a class in the middle of a dirt road. |

Happy belated anniversary! That is definitely a blessing to get to serve together in your first year of marriage. Time does fly fast, you'll be married 5 years before you know it! That cake looks yummy!!! Did Lyuda make it? Wow, only $5 a day? And to think how much they sell that coffee for here! Praying for you guys daily, can't wait until you guys get back! Jhasmine is always asking how many more nights until Yuri and Lyuda get back. Love you both, may God continue greatly blessing you and the work you're doing there!
ReplyDeleteThank you! The cake was a surprise for Lyuda. We'll be back in less than a month from now.
DeleteDo you have an exact date when you get back?
