Talents, Transitions & Timing.... - mailchi.mp/42aa15c38885/mccarthyterm2jan2020
How close are you to the people you interact with day in and day out? Is your dentist your friend or the parent of one of your students? Do you see your child’s Principal at social gatherings? Do you shop at the same grocery store and worship at the same church? For those of you who have grown up in or lived in a very small town, the answer to many of these questions might be yes and, for us, living here in Ukarumpa, the answer is most definitely yes.

Christmas Eve far from home is so different but sometimes different allows for new and beautiful and special. Sometimes, with four young kids, different also looks like chaos, missing family, preparing croissant dough, sending Marco Polo messages to dear friends who miss us and who we miss, taking a two hour nap mid-morning (the kids, not us, but we would have welcomed a nap 🙂 ) because they all woke up epically early from the excitement of the coming days and a much needed heart to heart about why we can be grateful that the God of the universe is a God of second chances who chose us before the beginning of time and who looks at us and sees His perfect Son who He sent to save us all those years ago. So many emotions flying around at the moment. So much gratitude. So much joy. So many loved ones - both here and in Canada. Our hearts are divided but they’re also saved because of this incredible God of ours so that is our hope and constant this Christmas season and every day. Merry almost Christmas everyone! #mccarthysinpng #sendthemccarthys #reasonfortheseason #forcednaps #unchanginggod @ Ukarumpa,SIL
As soon as you ask a missionary kid to put socks on, they immediately become a web-footed creature whose sole purpose is to spread their toes out as wide as possible in an effort to thwart any attempts to contain their feet inside of a sock. #mccarthysinpng #mccarthymks #mustbeconcerttime
Depending on your age, you may or may not remember the episode of Friends where Rachel accidentally combines a shepherd’s pie recipe with, I think, a trifle recipe. The result was a disgusting mess of sweet and savoury and a pretty hilarious episode of television. Well, I had my own, ‘Rachel’ moment this past semester. As I shared with you on our other blog, we have been trying some different things for our oldest, Benjamin (age 11 - Grade 6), to try and help him with focus, attention, school work and social situations and one of the main modes of attack has been diet.

In BC, especially in recent years, we have had some awful wildfires which is why it is still so strange to see this from my porch and not feel concerned. It sounded like it was burning right beside us and, when the wind changed direction, it smelled like it too. Just one of the differences in this different life. #mccarthysinpng #sendthemccarthys #burninggardens #gardensburned #gardensrenewed #regrowth
Have you ever woken up and not felt well? Have you ever had that feeling where you’re just not getting better and you know you need to seek more medical attention? Things change and sometimes things change quickly. And, here, when things change, the changes can involve quick decisions and international flights to seek further answers. Over the past few weeks, a dear friend and fellow Science teacher here at Ukarumpa International School, Sheila Nelson, was experiencing just that. [ 614 more words ]
