Sonidos Serranos

Sonidos Serranos: Sounds of the Sierras...
Reflecting some of my family's interests: God's wonderful creation (especially mountains and hills!), music, and language...

Psalm 121:1-2 (NASB)

I will lift up my eyes to the mountains;
From where shall my help come?
My help comes from the LORD,
Who made heaven and earth.

Conference in Carmelo

SO thankful for the opportunity to learn, to grow, to share...

We’re thankful to have spent most of last weekend in Carmelo, just north of the city of Colonia, on the western side of the country, on the Río Uruguay.

The drive in the spring sun was beautiful, with fields in bloom and turbines turning in the wind...


The huge clouds were warning of the severe thunder storm that was going to break that evening. We found out, after arriving, that tornado watches were also in effect!

That cloud in the middle looks like an inverted funnel!

The sky right before the storm actually broke...

I love being in cities in the interior of Uruguay, where a major portion of my childhood memories were formed. Though I also love living in MVD, part of my heart will always be in these areas of Uruguay that seem to have remained largely untouched by so many of the daily challenges in the capital...


Thank you, Becky, for the pictures!

Our main reason for the weekend trip was speaking in the conference at the church plant there, where some of our co-workers in the FEBU project are working.


We’re thankful for you all!


Opportunities like these force me (to make more time) to do what I need and want to be doing anyway – studying (on a deeper level) in order to be better able to share Truth that I’m learning...

E and DJ loved the opportunities to make new friends. DJ even informed me that we need to move to Carmelo now: “Because I made two friends here!” 😊


On the drive back to MVD...


We stopped to enjoy the wildflowers...

Nature Boy was in his element...

So thankful!
