from 2 months...to 2 weeks...now it's 2 days!

We're in the final stages of packing, making arrangements and saying good-bye to our family and friends. The time has really flown by and we are becoming more and more excited each day to see what the Lord has planned.

Beginning August 2nd, we will be in 2 weeks of church planting training at One Mission Society headquarters and leaving for Costa Rica on August 14.

Please pray for our family, especially during these next few days and weeks as we are in the heart of transition:

1. Thank the Lord that He has brought us thus far and thank Him for our many partners in prayer and giving. Please pray for the Lord's blessing on each member of our team.

2. Saying good-bye is difficult. Please pray for our ability to grieve well, especially for our children. We are all learning what it means to be happy and sad, excited and feeling loss....all at the same time.

3. Pray that all of the "little details" will fall into place as we make our moves.

4. Pray that we will have rich times with the Lord as individuals and as a family. The Lord is our strength!

Thank you, again, for praying for us!
