During this time Anna Lee's husband passed away (director of Bread for Children) and I was asked if I would consider returning to the head office in Florida to help out there for a time (rather than returning to Mexico). There I had the opportunity to gain more experience working closely with the printshop, and doing the layout of the English magazine (Bread for Children). Part of my job description was help with the proof reading but there is such a conflict between the written British English and American English, that I gave that one up and told them to just give me the copy once it was "correct". In my spare moments I began "playing" with some ideas for sketches and came up with a series illustrating my favorite parable - The Sower (Mark 4:1-20).]]> http://kiwichamp.com/my-favorite-parable-the-sower/feed/ 2 http://kiwichamp.com/the-surprise-or-surprize/ http://kiwichamp.com/the-surprise-or-surprize/#comments Thu, 08 Jan 2009 01:39:46 +0000 Jill Rapley http://kiwichamp.com/?p=226 Chapter 3 - The Surprise (or "Surprize" as we spell it in New Zealand) The three months spent in Florida preparing the first edition of Pan Para Los Hijos was not uneventful. The girl from Argentina decided to go her way after a personality conflict with the director of Bread For Children and two girls, one from Colombia and one from Georgia, were brought in. What a diverse team, a Colombian, a Kiwi and an American! Anna Lee and her secretary had visited Mexico City previously and had been connected with a magazine distributor in Cuernavaca Mexico (Trine V.). Trine had introduced Anna Lee to a printer and she was in the process of transferring to another area, leaving her apartment vacant in Cuernavaca. The stage was set!]]> http://kiwichamp.com/the-surprise-or-surprize/feed/ 2
