The heat so far hasn't been too bad of a problem, considering the apartment is completely air-conditioned. So its so nice to come home to. Donovan and I feel already feel quite at home, its as if we were meant to be out of our element. We love the food, the culture and the scenery. We get most of our food fresh and local, and it is so fun to cook truly organic! We go and get fresh caught shrimp, and fresh chicken for our meat. Or, my favorite, some delicious homemade tofu! The apples here are unbelievable, and of course so is the mangos, papayas and pineapple!! Its like the Garden of Eden with all the fresh fruits and veggies. Its a health nuts heaven. We eat rice with everything, its cheap to buy and easy to make! However, Malaysia is home to some famous bakeries...and the bread is to die for!
We haven't yet found a church, but we have been taking advantage of Solid Rocks podcasts. Its been great for our marriage, to listen and take notes to the sermons and then discuss and pray with one another. We know God has us here, for a purpose and we already feel the importance being around people who don't know our God. We ask you all for prayer everyday for God to use us, and to be empowered everyday by the Holy Spirit to speak and act in ways that bring glory, and honor to our Christ Jesus. Every morning is a new opportunity when we step out our door, to be lights to the community around us.
Today is our Halloween, and Donovan and I have the penthouse to ourselves! The Perkins are off to a Halloween party with the kids. The boys, Calvin and Wesley are so stoked! Calvin is going as Diego, and Wesley is a cowboy. Soo cute! Wesley has been telling us all day that is in fact Halloween. There is lightening and thunder going on, with some creepy rain falling. Perfect night for candy and some not so spooky movies with my hubby!
