Abide…
abide dwell stay remain continue "I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains {abides} in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing."

We are kind of having to rush our last few continents in order to finish in this school year...I should have planned the school year a little better at the beginning to know how long I'd need on each continent! I have LOVED our year around the world, learning about the peoples, cultures, missionaries, and geography of each land.
