BLOGAMOS!: Update from Chicago
http://thebrownios.blogspot.com/2011/09/update-from-chicago.html
Sunday, September 25, 2011. Can you believe we've been here over a month already? We are happy to report that we are settling in very well. I have been enjoying school a lot (except for Biostats of course - boo) and Gregg just got a JOB! He starts at Boeing this Friday and although I am very sad to be losing my live-in shopper/cleaner/cooker, Gregg is pretty excited to be getting out of the house on a regular basis :). Tim got a little sweaty helping us move :). Gregg looking hot in his new suit. You can...

Monday, May 30, 2011. Los Niños del Yalu. The adorable faces of Yalu. These kids are just too cute so I'll let them speak for themselves. Friday, May 27, 2011. The week in review. Here is the latest from this week in la vida de Los Brown. Its mango season in Guate which means you can buy a bag of 10 huge and delicious mangos for a whole $1.50. Why oh why are we leaving? Gregg's hair is officially out of control. We tried to tame it with a bobby pin but as you can tell we weren't very successful. Friends ...

BLOGAMOS!: Poverty = Bad / Education = Good!
http://thebrownios.blogspot.com/2011/10/poverty-bad-education-good.html
Sunday, October 2, 2011. Poverty = Bad / Education = Good! We hate poverty. We especially hate poverty that is caused by a lack of educational opportunities - like the poverty that the people in El Yalu, Guatemala experience on a daily basis. Did you know that:. Only 42% of rural Guatemalans finish primary school. Half the rate of urban children and 2nd lowest in the Latin America / Caribbean region. Guatemala is last in literacy rates in Latin America,. Any amount will help! Besides the obvious benefits...

BLOGAMOS!: April 2011
http://thebrownios.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 30, 2011. Hole in our Gospel. Hole in our Gospel, Richard Stearns - President of World Vision. 8220;Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen:. To loose the chains of injustice. And untie the cords of the yoke,. To set the oppressed free. And break every yoke? Is it not to share your food with the hungry. And to provide the poor wanderer with shelter—. When you see the naked, to clothe them,. And not to turn away from your own flesh and blood? Then you will find your joy in the LORD,.

BLOGAMOS!: A Love Note
http://thebrownios.blogspot.com/2011/07/love-note.html
Sunday, July 17, 2011. Than the one I have now - moving from uncertainty to uncertainty but always being certain that we have a God that loves us and knows his perfect plan for us, and knowing that we have each other as we experience this world together. In this setting I am writing this morning. To try to express but just a hint of how much I love you and how greatly for you I'm thankful, because, without you, I don't know where I'd be, but I know it wouldn't be a place worth comparing to where I am now.
