A three-day shadow

It's always exciting to pass on some of what we've learned. Laura, the daughter of Philippe and Joanne Mayhew, leaders of the work in France (and former Kilchzimmer co-workers) spent several days sitting with me and learning what a graphic designer does for a school project. She was supposed to just observe, but I let her take the reins a bit and she had a blast working in Photoshop and Illustrator. She's a quick learner and very productive, and she would like to use her talents for the Lord. Laura and Philippe came for lunch one day and we enjoyed our time together. We certainly miss the Mayhews at Kilchzimmer, but praise God for how he is working in their lives.

What's kept me from blogging…

Wow, December 22 was the last time we wrote here. I sincerely apologize. We have been extremely busy with church and ministry related projects, and I wanted to give you just a glimpse of what we've been doing.
CEF has a 30-hour course called Teaching Children Effectively and I've been tasked to recreate the PowerPoint templates for the course. With this project came the realization to do a complete reworking of the entire TCE design. After working with several members of the CEF Europe Education department and several workers on the field, we came up with a new series of logos for the three levels of the course. I finished designing the PowerPoint templates and two sample (but fully usable) lessons.
We've also been busy doing a complete redesign of our church's Web site. It's not up and running yet, but we hope to have it completed by the first week in February. Look for it in a future post!
