Isaiah 58: 11

Isaiah 58:11

The LORD will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.

Table Tennis Tournament

While we were living in Nairobi, Max became an avid table tennis player.  His Korean friends taught him to play and they practiced every morning before school and at every break.  He hasn't had opportunity to play much this past year, so when he saw an advertisement for a Table Tennis Tournament at the Clubhouse, he was keen to enter.


We watched some amazing table tennis!  There were competitors from Germany, Canada, Britain, Philippines.  Some had played on their country's national teams.  And what fun everyone had!  In true Qatar fashion, there was lots of food and laughing.  Max won first place in the Youth Category.  We were so proud of him!  His prize was a gift certificate for 500 Qatari Riyals (about $137).  Impressive given that the entry fee was just 20 riyals and Max ate that much in food alone!
