February 2018
We have received word that our
work permits have been approved in Papua New Guinea! Our tentative departure date is
mid-March. We thank everyone for their
prayers during the time of preparation and waiting. You have been in our prayers as well.
Of course, we must admit to some
frustration during the wait period, however, we have come to believe it was all
part of God’s plan. A friend’s brother
died unexpectedly in late December and we were able to help her during the
first few weeks in a variety of ways. As
well, we have helped (we hope) Lay Mission-Helpers and Mission Doctors
Association in doing some maintenance at the Mission House. Of course, we have also used the time to pray
and reflect!
We are excited to begin the next
leg of our journey as we ask: Stay with
us, Lord, on our journey.
O
Jesus, we surrender ourselves to you, take care of everything!
