"We're almost done!", it was hard to believe, as we stuffed the mattress into the last top inches of the van. Relief and anxiety mixed in mi mind. We had finished our goal of getting all our things out of the apartment.. I rejoiced at the sight, and yet we sure were running late... and Jonah was up to lead worship AND preach!!
We hurried off to church, and showed up with enough time to get things in order. The band had done a good job of practicing, and a good thing they did.
After enjoying the presence of God and His people, we were encountered by a series of hugs, and words of love, by soo many precious people that we love.
It was our last sunday in Acapulco.
And now I sit writting you this email from Petatlan.
Excited, hopefull, and a little anxious.
Jonah and I have been praying and considering this day for several months... well a little more than a year, and we are now ready to make the leap! We will be returning to Elim Bible (www.elim.edu) for this spring semester, where Jonah will be finishing his studies in two years. We will be working and attending Word of Life CF in Henrietta.
It's been 4 years now, since I started on this journey of coming back to Mexico as a missionary. And now we've been married 6 months. How much we have learned! We want to thank God for this opportunity, and we thank you for your support.
We will be in touch, as we work and learn in New York. We hope to return to Mexico after our further preparation, as the Lord leads. Please pray for our travel, as we hope to leave tomorrow early, starting our drive to NY!
Thanking you for all your support. May our Father richly bless you, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!
