It's Been Awhile...

Well, it has been awhile since we have posted on here....mostly because there hasn't been a whole lot to say! We have enjoyed the down time being with our families and trying to get settled in. Although, it looks like we are up for ANOTHER move! It is wonderful to see how God once again provided for our needs. Some good friends of ours, Doug and Evie Swenson are allowing us to stay in their home for the next several months. They are staying in a small addition/apartment that belongs to another couple in our church and allowing us to use their house! We are overwhelmed by their generosity. Staying in their home will allow us to spread out and figure out what of our things we need to keep for the field and what to get rid of. We were also in need of a place that we can entertain people for meals as a way to reconnect with those in our home churches. Their home will answer these needs and much more. 


We are feeling overwhelmed by all that needs to be done in this time of preparation to go overseas and in raising support, but it is wonderful knowing that we can rest in God and his timing and provision! We are also looking for opportunities to share what God has laid on our hearts and about the ministry we hope to take part in. If you know of any small groups, Sunday schools, or churches, etc. please let us know!

That's so great that you get a house to yourselves for a while. God is so good to provide these things for us, isn't he?
But i'm sure you're not looking forward to the packing up and moving aspect of it. I hope it all goes smoothly for you and that you get many opportunities to share your plans with people.

Please email me at JazMarie1@hotmail.com with some info on how we may be able to support you as a church/small group, and I'll give it to our pastor. If you have a mission statement/testimony I'm sure he'd like to see that as well. We belong to a very small church, but hopefully something will work out! :-)
