Adventures in Madrid: In the know
http://whiteheadsinmadrid.blogspot.com/2013/10/in-know.html
Saturday, 5 October 2013. Just a few snippets of news / photos / film clips of our current antics in. Falls mainly on…us these days when we go out without our coats because it was roasting the day before. A temperamental autumn is here! The long, sweaty Spanish summer, when kids whine all day in the heat, was revolutionised for us this year by the amazing provision of a pool. Ellie learnt to ‘swim’ and Joseph to sunbathe(! And life was much more bearable for everyone. Forgive the head tilting). We also j...

Adventures in Madrid: June 2012
http://whiteheadsinmadrid.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, 17 June 2012. Perspective is a wonderful thing. Well it’s definitely about time for an update! A lot of umming and arring has been going on at my desk and the EURO 2012 sure isn’t helping my concentration – Come on. We’re hoping for a Spain vs England final so that we can celebrate either victory! So as it’s proving too difficult to come up with a coherent structure of my thoughts, here are some flitting Whitehead family news snippets:. And slowly I feel my language is improving. Sal’s lang...

Tuesday, 21 January 2014. Firstly, a really happy new year to all our friends and family! Something the Bible encourages you to do is:. 8220;Trust in the Lord with all your heart,. And do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him,. And he will make straight your paths.” (Proverbs 3:5-6). It’s a privilege and confidence that we have as God’s kids and, as we’re learning, it apparently plays a big part in church-planting. Finally, a few highlights of things we are enjoying. WeR...

Adventures in Madrid: November 2014

Tuesday, 11 November 2014. 3 years in and 3rd one’s a charm! Lots of mutual gazing of eyes filled with wonder, fights for epic cuddles on the sofa and a sudden surge in contact and video-calls from grandparents can all only mean one thing… the stork has found us in our Spanish hide-away and delivered a very cute little bundle! Sal, having trained in the UK as a midwife, got to see first-hand the entire process worked out differently in another country and has lived to tell several tales! Anyway, much lov...

Adventures in Madrid: September 2011
http://whiteheadsinmadrid.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Monday, 26 September 2011. Oh no, wait, yes.I've LOST the piece of paper that means we're residents in Madrid! Hurrah, well at times like this we're trying to learn to laugh (& eat watermelon). We're in a very bizarre situation of occasionally feeling like we're on holiday but on the other hand feeling stressed out as we grapple with 'the new' and as we press on down a list of things that need to be done to get our lives up and running here. I'm still to find potential Spanish friends (spare a prayer!

Adventures in Madrid: March 2013
http://whiteheadsinmadrid.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, 31 March 2013. To our friends and family reading this! It seems appropriate at this time to ‘resurrect’ our blog, 18 months into our adventure. Communication through Facebook, WhatsApp, phone calls and an unexpected trip back to the Isles at Christmas all made other thoughts of updates seem unnecessary, but apologies to those who haven’t been brought up to date! 8216;Our bad.’. We have a solid church-plant team! At our Easter Sunday celebration today. That's my boy :-). See what I did there?
