Visas in Hand!



We are so thankful that our visas are now in our possession! April 14, the day we applied for them, seems so long ago. However, it has all been in God's good timing, and we are thankful for how it has forced us to prayer at every stage of this adventure. Thank you so much to all who have prayed with us about this need. It is hard to believe that by the end of this month we should be in France!

We are in the process of purchasing one-way tickets for Wednesday, June 24. We will be leaving from Charlotte, NC, stopping in Chicago then landing in London. In London we will have to collect all our bags (so we are told), and then catch a bus across the city to the other airport. From there we will fly straight to Bordeaux.

On Sunday, June 21 (our last Sunday in the States), Cleveland Park Bible Church (our sending church) will be holding an official commissioning service. Both I and Ken Jensen of EMU (our sending agency) will be speaking. There will be a fellowship meal following the service. You are all invited to come!
