Psalm 8 is one of my favorite psalms. Sometimes I look at the natural beauty of God's creation and I don't even have words to express how in awe I am of God. I love this psalm because it is a prayer to God exactly how I feel. "O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens...When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place...O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!" The countryside of Sierra Leone is by far the most beautiful place I have ever seen. In just one day, about a month ago, I experienced the grasslands, rainforest, mountains, and the ocean. I feel so fortunate to be able to work in such a beautitful country.

Chelsea,

Yo, we just finished Chapel with the dear and departing Dr. Davenport. We took communion with Blair and Karina asissting. Just in case you find out before I tell you I cant' spel (notice). I have been praying for you and the Bease. He is anxious to see you again and move with you to Sierra Leon, he hears you can have multiple wives over there (only joking). At this moment your fiance is crawling around on the office floor, maybe he is slain in the Spirit, I don't.

Grace and Peace to You. I look forward to seeing you and possibly doing some martial counseling with you perhaps on December 7th. Mike has agreed to participate in the annual "Lessons and Carols" on December 9th. He dosen't know he will have to dress like a Christmas ornament to participate.
