Aid of Resurrection!!
In this language a religious holiday is called an "Aid". Since to many people associate bunnies, eggs and such things to the word "Easter" it was suggested that we should call this important holiday the Aid of Resurrection. We spent some time today reflecting on what HE did for us and the hope and joy we have because of this DAY!! Many of our friends were unaware of the fact that we even had an Aid today...... I am so thankful that we can say Rejoice!!!! Our King is Risen!!!! As our children sang this morning...."God's not dead, NO! He is alive! I feel Him all over me!" Blessings on your Aid!!!
A Special Visit.....
It was sooooo special to have Toufik, our friend from NYC and his mother Halmia, from Algeria here for 4 days! We all had such a good time and the children especially had fun with Uncle TH!
Of course we drank tea together.....even Kelly tried tea for the first time!!
Special memories where made and I was so glad that the Moroccan dialect is very close to the Western Algerian dialect and I was able to talk with Halmia. Here she is modeling the shawl that I gave her....there was tears from all of us as we said good bye on Saturday morning.
