FAMILY MATTERS

To our own surprise, this time little family news.

Our growing involvement and active role within Poznan International Church (PIC) develops in various ways, more about this in two blogs above.

But luckily we also have our Polish friends, with whom we were able to go into the mountains for a week this year during the winter holidays at the end of January. That was fun and plenty of opportunity to take beautiful pictures!

With our children getting older, Jonathan being in China, and Jadwiga being able to have regular company here at home of our “adopted” children from PIC, Maja and I will have the opportunity to travel together for the first time to ensure the much wanted follow-up on the foreign relations of both Bread of Life and ours as a family. We hope to fly to the US for more than two weeks in the last week of March – it will be challenging, it will be intensive, but we also hope to enjoy it together enormously!

More about this without a doubt in our next newsletter!
