World of Change

So... yeah...
A lot has happened since I posted last time. I haven't shot any assignments for Times Media Inc. in as long as I can remember. I was working nearly full time at Kiddie Kandids until just recently. My boss there, Lora, is great. I'm pretty sure we'll keep in touch for a long time. She has been so flexible in the process of us joining World Venture.
That's the biggest news. We just got back from Colorado where we went through numerous interviews, classes, and training sessions. We were appointed as missionaries to Mali, West Africa. We made some amazing friends while we were there. There were six other couples. Heidi was so completely in her element. She seemed to be more at home there than... when she's at home.
So now we are starting to invest a lot of time building the relationships that will make it possible for us to live and serve the church in Mali.
I have so much more to say, but I'll just leave you with this video. This is the first video I ever made. This family went to the finals in some TV talent show. Anyway, I figured if I am going to try to build a professional media endeavor in a third world I had better learn to post video on the web.
Don't forget to turn your sound on.
