(above) Tues., Dec. 27 - Laura joined a Christmas celebration of volunteer values teachers in a Muntinlupa church. Group picture here, but about half of the teachers could not attend.

(above left) Fri., Jan. 6 - First seminar for 2012; an introductory seminar for interested churches and this time it was entirely men!

(below left) Following the seminar, Laura went "cold turkey" to visit a new-to-us church located close to an "unadopted" but open high school...and found eager workers who may even start teaching the Biblical values classes this month!

(below) Sat., Jan. 7 - Time to harvest our palm trees; Joseph scooted up in his bare feet and went to work! (below left) A zoom closer to the action.

(above) Sun., Jan. 8 - Laura worshipped with a partner church; group picture of the volunteer Bible values teachers.

(upper right) Tues., Jan 10 - Laura and Kuya Jess (VOICE Director) visited the Philippine Bible Society; group picture with friends who also "happened" to be visiting plus two of the leaders.

(right) They were treated to a tour of the Bible Society museum which includes a "dress-up" station (especially for children but...!). Laura poses as Judge Deborah.

(lower right) Kuya Jess as Moses!

below) Laura with the gal who will check Laura's research as part of the final decision re publishing her project.

(above) Tues. Jan. 10 - As we left the office to return home, two of the most precious boys in the world (sons of the caretaker for the property where the VOICE office is) met us and wanted some hugs...and pictures (or maybe it was us that wanted the pictures!). This is cool season for us...it got down to 78 (F) or 26 (C) thus the hats/hoods!
