Helena has been moving so fast lately that we cannot even keep up with her long enough to take an action picture. Here she is in a rare cuddly moment with dad. She also loves to make things in the play kitchen at Auntie Karla and Uncle David's house in Decorah, IA. (There will be more pictures to come of Helena and her new cousins Dawit and Meheret.)

Also, we would like to take this opportunity to share with you information about our upcoming ordinations:

You are invited to the ordination service of Mary and Aaron Suomala Folkerds
Where: Zion Lutheran Church (1200 Highway 25 South, Buffalo, MN 55313)
When: Sunday, July 22nd, 2007 at 2:00 p.m.
What: Aaron and Mary will be starting their journey as ordained pastors in the ELCA. Bishop Jon Anderson of the Southwest Minnesota Synod will officiate at the double ordination service. The preacher for the day is Pastor David Vasquez who is the Campus Pastor at Luther College in Decorah, Iowa. Pastor Vasquez is Mary and Aaron’s brother-in-law. Aaron’s father, Pastor John Folkerds, will also participate. Refreshments will be served in the Fellowship Hall immediately after the service.
