Thank you Northstar!

We just wanted to say a quick "Thank you!" to NorthStar Worldwide.

We are currently passing through a period when God is challenging and teaching us about generosity and giving. We are often taught that it is better to give than to receive, and that God rewards generosity.   We have certainly received plenty - often from unexpected sources. Often we receive without asking, but sometimes we have to ask; this can be embarrassing - it can be our pride, or it can be not wanting to put the other person in a situation where they feel obliged to give.

When we do receive something, of course it's good to say 'thank you'. So, we'd just like to mention Northstar Worldwide, which is the organisation we use for Louissa and Joshua's home-schooling. Louissa is half way through her 2 years IGCSE in English Language and English Literature, and Joshua has just started Year 8 English. Northstar is a Christian organisation, and has several other missionary families using its services. As with the schools here in Brazil, we explained our situation as being volunteer workers and asked if they could help us. 

We were very happy that Steve, Lyn and the team agreed to offer us  a special deal in view of our circumstances. We're sure that this generosity will not go unnoticed by God ...
