Merhba: December 2005
http://merhba.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 10, 2005. Hey everybody, yes. We really are in Malta, and we have the pictures to prove it! Since we've got our new fancy-schmancy DSL line, we've been able to talk and email with our family a lot more, and we've really enjoyed the picture sharing. So we decided to jump online and put together a picture gallery. For all of you. Let us know what you think, and please send us pictures of yourselves too! None of the pictures on this page or in the picture gallery. Surrey, BC, Canada.

Merhba: August 2005
http://merhba.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 17, 2005. Well we’ve been kinda out of touch for the last couple of weeks, and hadn’t posted anything for a couple of weeks before that. Also we’re at the three month mark, which means that of our originally planned trip is already over. So we figure it’s time for an actual update on things. But don’t worry, there’s still plenty of anecdotes about life in Malta to come. Not only did we do all kinds of fun stuff like a day of swimming in the Blue Lagoon. And lunch in Mdina with a view.

Merhba: January 2006

Monday, January 30, 2006. The Shipps' visit to Malta. We were so blessed to have our dear friends, Josh and Sarah Shipp, stop by our little island home while they vacationed in London. They were only able to stay for the weekend, but we had a fabulous time! The weather was mostly rainy, so we opted for staying in with vino. And a deck of cards. Check out some photos here: Shipps Slipknot Time Malta Tour 2006. PS - We also added Thanksgiving 2005 photos! Posted by BenandJess at 7:18 PM. Finally we made it...

Merhba: July 2005

Tuesday, July 19, 2005. What's in a Name? For those of you who haven’t yet. Sent us a care package (which should include a six-pack of Dr. Pepper, bottled Starbucks Frapuccino’s, and bag of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos). You may not be familiar with the proper way to address your postage. One of the cool and interesting things about walking the streets of Malta is that the houses don’t usually have street numbers they have names! And then the majority of houses are named after favorite saints like. We have invent...

Merhba: June 2005
http://merhba.blogspot.com/2005_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 22, 2005. When Close to Rome. So there are these broken strips of pavement in Malta, which I wouldn’t exactly call streets. There are also these funny shaped boxes with motors, which I wouldn’t exactly call cars. And altogether, driving in Malta is quite an adventure. But the fact that this beautifully smooth strip of tarmac was only 50 yards long and the only of its kind makes me feel that nobody would care. This wonderful family in the church loaned us their extra car. They were goi...

Merhba: November 2005
http://merhba.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 30, 2005. But Jesus, I thought we were playing hide and seek. Ever feel like you're playing hide and seek with Jesus? We've been spending a great deal of our time here finding Jesus. Notice we didn't say "trying to find Jesus." We know where He is - His Word tells us everything we need to know about Him. But oddly enough, that doesn't always reach our hearts. Interpreting His Word can get sticky, and people have all sorts of ideas about who He is. Posted by BenandJess at 9:37 AM.

Oh, How Insightful...: April 2005
http://missyinsights.blogspot.com/2005_04_01_archive.html
Oh, How Insightful. Saturday, April 23, 2005. In Praise of "So, you're going to Malta? My brilliant brother recently posted a blog entitled "So, you're going to Malta? Http:/ benjvm.blogspot.com. And now, if I may, big bro, my spin:. Where are they going? Are you sad they're leaving? Yes, but excited for them. Is it a missions trip? They won't be building houses or teaching about Jonah and the Cup, but God has placed it on their hearts to live in Malta and encourage fellow believers. Why are they going?
