Off into the Yonder

Paul and I have recently accepted a call to work at Gimbie Hospital in Ethiopia, Africa. We will be leaving on Monday, May 19, 2008, and will be out of the USA for roughly two years. We will be starting a blog devoted to our African adventures as soon as possible. When we do, the link will be posted here. Enjoy life, look to the light, and all are welcome to come and visit us!

Running with a Reason

Barry (Paul's brother) and I are currently training to run the Knoxville Marathon at the end of March. John and Martina (another brother and my sister) may also be joining us. However, instead of just pounding our knees aimlessly for 26 + miles, we've adopted a mission to make the venture worthwhile: raising money for the Diamante Project in Argentina. We're asking all friends and family to sponsor us for every stride we run. For more information on the project in Argentina, check out http://diamante-project.blogspot.com. For info on how to donate, write to me at Petra.Houmann@gmail.com.
