Danae's Letters
Happy Father's Day!
Papa, I love you
For all that you do
I'll kiss you and hug you
'Cause you love me, 2
You feed me and need me
To teach you to play,
So smile cause I love you
On this Father's Day!!!
- Nicholas G.
Dear Papa,
I love you very much!
A very Happy Father's Day 2 u!
I am blessed to have a papa like you! I have many memories of the great, fun times that we have had and I am thankful for those times like the time we had on my b-day! Thank you for all that you did for me! I also remember the many lessons you have taught me such as:
1. make lists
2. obey God and trust Him
3. love others
4. follow your dreams
5. laugh through the pain
I am happy that you care 4 us to talk and pray with us daily. But mostly I'm blessed to have a papa who loves God and serves Him! You have taught me what's most important in life by doing that. The greatest gift a dad can give his kids is God's love and to make Him the center of their universe!!! <3
love,
Danae' & Sal
Dear Papa,
I have not written lots in a while, but I am very hap-p-p-p-p-p-y to write to you again, and first I want to say 'I L.O.V.E. you very much'!!!
L - Love
O - Obey
V - Value
E - Enjoy
Thank you for all your love and support that you have shown each day that I have been born and for all the splendid surprises that you have surprised us with! Merci! Merci! Merci! But, I also know that love can still be love even when it's in chastisement form. I am glad that God has given you lots of wisdom to share with us about life, and true happiness, and God, the whole nine yards!
I hope that you will continue to live a long & grand life and I hope you will see us become great missionaries as we take your advice to heart and follow God's path. I appreciate all that you have told me and I will appreciate it even more as I get older because none of us as kids can see things as clear as only God can and you, as our father can. I will always L.O.V.E. you forever from the bottom of my heart!
Sincerely, Love
Danae'
Dear Papa,
I am glad you came back safely today. This new country house is very cool besides the ants. But there are cherry trees outside; I think they are cherries, and there are some horses inside the gate over at our neighbor's house and lots of butterflies flying around!!!!! I hope you can show us how to catch one soon! Inside our house is very nice and the bunk beds are great, too, with the large kitchen and Master bedroom and stuff!
I am thankful God gave us this house, and the best parts are near evening, when a huge sunset comes over our house with lots of colors and we can take pictures. It's like a large canvas covering the blue sky with shimmering colors painted all over it making it splendidly super! God is Great!!!
Love
Danae`
P.S. I am glad we can have Father's Day here.
Happy Father's Day!
from Danae` to Papa
A father is a source of strength,
a teacher and a guide
The one his family looks up to
With loving trust and pride...
A father is a helper
With a willing hand to lend,
A partner, and adviser
And the finest kind of friend.

Dear Papa,
Happy Father's Day!
I love you.
Thank you for giving me a great birthday on yesterday. I enjoyed all of the things that we did but most of all I enjoyed being with you and Danita, Daniqua and Danyelle.
Father, I love being with you
Times when we are just simply chatting
just strolling by.
I never know where the hours go by.
When you would forget your duty and demands
and I would forget my little complaints.
Perhaps it's like this in Heaven,
I would often think.
Perhaps it's like this when we feel Father's love.
Happy Father's Day.

You have always been a great father. Thank you for all that you do. God will richly bless you and reward you. Keep up the great work for the Lord. Thank you for all your encouragement, chastisement, and hard work to make me into the girl God wants me to be, that's why I am wishing you a Happy Father's Day to a terrific father.
Sincerely,
Love,
Danae`
Dear Papa,
I love you very much. You are a great father. I am glad you are my Dad. Thanks for everything you do.
I am so thankful for you because so many other kids don't have a Dad. I appreciate the times when we can go riding together, eat together, drink slushies & sing along to our favorite songs together, talk together and most of all do something for Jesus like going soul winning or giving money to the homeless and then taking them out to eat at McDonalds. I am just glad to have a Father like you!!!
Apples are crabby,
Berries are Blue,
Cherries are sweet
And so are You!
I love you best of all.
Sincerely, love
Danae'
Dear Papa,
I love you very much. You are a great father.
Thank you for taking care of me this week. Not much has happened this week, so I won't have much to write. I hope that we'll all feel better soon. I just can't wait to get back to normal so that we can continue with the ministry work and stay ahead. But I'm also glad that we have this time because we get to be with each other and we rest and recuperate for the long year ahead of us.
Thank you for taking us soulwinning. I hope that we pass out 12, 000 tracts this year, and that alot of souls will be won more importantly. Remember that we have to tithe and give to the people in Africa. Valentines is in a few more days. If we're feeling better by that time could we please go down to Dallas and spread love to the homeless people
and take them out to lunch?
I love you best of all.
Sincerely,
Love,
Danae'
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
From: Danae'
To: Papa
Dear Papa,
Merry Christmas!
I am glad that Jesus has died for us so that we can have this great day. I am glad that this is the day that Jesus was born and the bright star shone down on the wise men as they traveled to Jesus' birth. That is why this day is special as we know, its not about gifts or the big tree or a colorful lighted up house but about Jesus and that's all.
Remember we have to help the homeless on the street so they can have a Merry Christmas, too. Thank you for making this day go well. My Christmas present under the tree, the presence of a happy family all wrapped up with each other.
Sincerely,
Love,
Danae'
Presents lie beneath our tree,
Waiting for the dawn,
When they all have been unwrapped,
Christmas won't be gone!
Still its joy will fill the air,
Singing near and far,
Gentle as a flake of snow,
Radiant as a star!

Dear Papa,
I love you.
You are a great father. Thank you for everything you do.
This has been a very productive week. I'm glad we've finished Bug-A-Booh. It's a great feeling of accomplishment. Could we please help the homeless? The service today was great, thank you for letting us take part in the service. It makes the church time more fun. Could we please send some money to Jamie and may I please order some missionary magazines and language books? I am learning division and working multiplication this week, and I've done another Bible Pace and I've done a book report on George Mueller and D. L. Moody. Could you please take us on that trip to Atlanta, that you said you were planning. I was really not happy when you went away on Wednesday without taking us with you. I really love to go with you anywhere. I love you best of all.
Sincerely,
Love,
Danae'

Joyeux Noel!
Cher Papa,
I love you very much.
I am very glad that we are able to see this, another Christmas day together, but I am also glad that we were able to help and give to others. Thank you for all that you have done for us this year and I'm glad that you have graduated and are able to stay home. We all know that Christmas is not about gifts, trees, or food, but it's all about the Virgin birth of Jesus, His death, and Resurrection, and the presence of family. Thank you so much for being a great father.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Love,
Danae'
Dear Papa,
I love you.
You are a great father. Thank you for everything you do. Church was great today, like it always is. Thank you for taking us soul-winning. We also have to tithe to God.
Thank you for buying me these new sneakers. I like them a lot. This week has been a good one, I've actually started on my 4th grade work. I praise God that your book has reached the bestsellers's list for February and I hope it will reach the bestsellers list every month.
I've been having a lot of dreams lately, like one after the other. But having dreams is fun while you're sleeping, 'cause it's like you're still thinking and imagining while you're asleep, and when you wake up, it's okay, because you're coming out of something else and realize it's all fake and you're just waking up into the same situation. On the Lilly book, we're still using our imaginations to finish up the Australia story, it's forming up well.
Valentines is in a few more weeks, could we please go to the library and give love to the homeless people down there by taking them out to lunch and showing them the way to Jesus, then may we please go to the local orphanage and give out chocolate bags to the poor kids. God would be very pleased to see us showing some love to others who are less fortunate than us.
Love conquers all. - Virgil

Love,
