My family is a little like the thornbirds minus the lecherous old woman, the fornicating priest, or his femme fatale…. OK, so we are nothing like the thornbirds except for the fact that my sister decided to become an actress and I became a minister. It did seem for a while we were following in the foot steps of Meggy’s children, Justine and Dane. For that reason alone I never go swimming in the ocean. 
Anyway our life imitates art scenario was going along very well until my sister got saved and then received a call to the mission field. Soon she will be Rev. Brenda Lillie and will be headed to the Netherlands to work with missionary Judy Mensch, who runs a children’s evangelism program called KIDZARK. Hallelujah! Praise God for great changes!
Recently Brenda went for an exploratory of the area in which she will be ministering and building the KIDZARK & Co family theater program. 
Her trip went well. She visited Lisse and saw the tulip fields.
She also walked the canals of Zaanse Schans.
She walked past this famous hotel in Zaandam.
Most exciting though, she got to help Judy put together an outreach in which three people gave their hearts to Jesus!
So my sister is becoming a pastor! Wouldn’t it be an odd twist of thornbird fate if I suddenly got approached to go to Hollywood?! Oyve!
