It was our joy today to celebrate Isabel's 18th birthday! Our families met ten years ago when their family relocated to the states from the Philippines. Isabel and Caleb are the same age and Katrina and Abigail are both the same age. We've done many field trips, art class, drama groups, operas, birthdays and theater productions together over the years. We were blessed to share in Isabel's baptism a few years ago as well.
Isabel's family is actively involved in the International Church of Christ and the girls have grown up doing mission work, church camps, etc. just like our kids. They have encouraged Caleb in his Biblical Text studies at LCU.
The party was celebrated with games and some of Isabel's favorite Filipino food. There was also a fun slide show of Isabel growing up over the years, so many great memories. We're excited to see what this next phase of this very talented young ladies life holds! Happy birthday, Isabel!
Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ. Colossians 2:16-17
