Sunday August 21

Today was the day for our presentation about our time in Indonesia to our home congregation. We titled it "Seeing the Face of Christ in Indonesia" and it included images of many of our friends. It was a great deal of fun putting it together as it brought back so many memories. We wore our batik shirts, thanks to Marnala and Kristen for their shopping help.

First we were introduced by the head of Christian Education.We talked about many aspects of our experience in Indonesia. The presentation was attended by over 100 members of our congregation.
Jacob played the ukulele and we sang "This is the Day" in English, Bahasa Indonesia and Batak. Our members did a good job singing in these languages, which were completely new to them.
After our presentation we went out to lunch with Jim's parents (on the right side) and Jim's Aunt and Uncle (seated next to Jim).
Jacob had a great traditional southern American meal of biscuits and gravy, grits with cheese, bacon, and fruit. He ate every bite.
