What in the world?
I thought it might be a good time to post a general information update...we leave Sunday for Johannesburg, South Africa for a week of training.
We are still waiting on visas to Namibia...please keep praying. This is apparently not unusual for it to take so long to get a work permit for Namibia. We wish we were going straight there, but we trust God and are excited to see how this all pans out. It may take another few months for us to get a visa into the country.
In the meantime, we will be going to Lobatse, Botswana...probably next weekend? We will have the opportunity to be mentored by some seasoned workers there in a rural setting similar to ours. David knows this couple and thinks very highly of them. I cannot wait to meet them. We will also be reunited with our dear Botswanan brother, Jack, who was in our wedding.
We are doing well and we know a large part of this is because of all the prayers for us. We are sooo grateful! It has been 6 weeks of unexpected waiting. But, we have had a peace...even with all the uncertainty that lies ahead...that is a peace that passes understanding that is only from God and a result of many precious partners who are lifting us up. We praise God for you!
If you would like to receive our monthly updates, send us an email and we would be happy to add you.
We will keep you posted as God unfolds this next part of His plan.
...and now, I really must go pack...really!
