Kariotahi Beach


A few weeks ago we had to rent a second car to go to the city and get new passports so then we took the afternoon off and went to the beach! We took one girl from our neighborhood that was over and we had a great time. We all had fun playing in the sand, the water, and relaxing! So here's a few pictures of our from afternoon!

Kids playing in the water!

Cookies

Last Saturday we had two of our club kids over to make cookies! Irini is ten and Shikiel is 8 and they had a great time making cookies for Bible Club with us! And we all enjoyed too! I love working with these sweet Maori kids! So here is a few pictures from the afternoon!


Irini hard at work making Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies!


I helped Irini and Nicolea.


And Emmaline helped Shikiel and Mercy make some regular Chocolate Chip Cookies.


Then while the cookies were in the oven we played Uno!


Irini with her finished product.


And Mercy and Shikiel with their cookies.


And then when you go to the Snyders the highlight is always riding bikes!!!

Visitors from the States

For three weeks at the end of September and the beginning of October we had the blessing of having the Clementsons visit us. They are a young couple from the States who are traveling all over the world helping missionaries. They helped out with Bible Club, letter boxing, street preaching, door knocking, and much more. It was a blessing to have them here; we all greatly enjoyed them!


Daddy and Brandon door knocking.


We played all kids of card games in the evenings!

We played a soccer game while there were here with a bunch of the club kids just for fun one morning!

This is what they travel with - just two backpackers backpacks!


Bro. Millar came up and picked them up to take them down to Hamilton for awhile now.


Thanks for stopping by. It was great to get to know you both! May the Lord bless you as you continue to serve Him!
