Therese: The Story of a Soul

Friday night a one-woman drama on the life of St. Therese was performed at our parish. Adam and I had arranged for the play to come to our community with the help of several sponsors. It was produced by St. Luke Productions and directed by Leonardo Defillippis.

It was simply beautiful. What a blessing to have the life of this great Saint come to life for us! We had a great turn out with over 400 people in attendance–and lots of youth! It’s been interesting to hear people’s reactions. Everyone we’ve talked to so far loved it. It’s also been interesting to hear how God was speaking to different people through this play.

Margaret and Michael Masny, the actress who played Therese in the drama and her husband (who is also the technical assistant) stayed with Adam and I. They are an awesome couple. They were actually married the same day AND time that we were. I also think they met about the same time we did as well. They are expecting their first child. Please keep them in your prayers.

On the Move!

I wanted to give everyone a little update on our Little Flower. Therese started crawling last Tuesday evening, September 7! It takes some great motivation for her to do so. And there is only one toy that she would go after–a music toy that my parents got in Japan the year after I was born. Yesterday she actually moved out of her play area toward the dining room. She stop when she saw Adam and I, and demanded we pick her up and take her to the table with us.

She has been sufferring from allergies the past few days. She’s almost over it.
We went swimming yesterday with our friends Brad, Misty and little Anna. (Anna is a month older than Therese.) Therese and Anna have become quite good friends over the past month. It’s so adorable to watch them together.

Last night Therese had her first taste of meat–Turkey and rice baby food. She found it quite tastey…I found it quite bland.
