Hey, did you know that it was the Month of the Bible in Spain in March?  Well, it was.  Check out what the Bible Society in Spain had to say about it (in Spanish).

Actually, a number of different countries celebrate Bible months or weeks – for example, for Australia it’s in May.  In the Philippines, I believe it’s January.  I’ve heard it’s September in Peru.  Do you have one in your country?

Anyway, here’s one missionary report on Bible Month in Spain, and what happened – ¡Día de la Biblia!

From Thailand… a post about being a hero, and a little glimpse of culture in Fido Rides Again. :)

Don’t forget those who are preparing to return to the field, such as this family going to the Philippines.

And while we’re away from the field, check out a creative way to raise funds – Faso Five-O Finish (Burkina Faso).

And one more big issue while you’re off the field and trying to get back… visas!  VISA, VISA, and No VISAs will give you the low-down when it comes to Spain.

An odd topic, I know.  But let’s face it – bullfighting is a big deal in Latin America, and … in Spain, a VERY big deal! So I thought you might be interested in these three posts (one new, the other two old) about the topic. First, a quick picture of a bullfighting ring in [...]
