Family Updates and Photos from April and May

Liz sat in on some lectures while I took a Biblical Theology class from Dr. D.A. Carson here in Budapest.  It was the most fascinating and difficult post-graduate class I have ever taken.  And I loved it!  Liz also loved it and asked questions of Dr. Carson at every opportunity.  How often do you get a chance to learn from one of the world's foremost New Testament scholars!  Here I am copying class notes off of Liz...er, ah, I mean, making sure she got all the lecture notes down correctly ;-)

Here is Quentin playing first base and  scooping the ball out of the dirt during a Hungarian Little League game.  Once again this season Quentin led his team, the "Diosd Dodgers," in batting average.
Here EB demonstrates how to make cinnamon rolls during a cooking class she gave at a Ukranian wives retreat.   Please scroll below these photos and you will find many of EB's favorite recipes.

Rebekah has found a home in the fine arts.  Here she is in-between songs during a bell choir performance.  She has also recently done piano recitals and been part of vocal choirs.
Savannah has been determined to try new things and this spring she tried out for a local girls softball team.  She is not the "franchise player" like she is on the basketball court, but here puts some good wood on the ball.  Some of the pitchers in her league are throwing the ball upwards of 60 mph.

I love what you are doing not only as a CCC leader but as a Father guiding and encouraging your whole family to be involved in the mission of loving the unlovable and sharing the hope of Christ Jesus.
What a blessing you have been given Matt Jackson. What a beautiful blessing.
