heading back

Tomorrow we get to head back to that country we love. It is so hard to be there in many ways but it is far deeper, greater joy than it is difficulty for us. What a privilege for us to get to live there.

If you think to pray for an empty seat for us on the plane, we would love that. As it is, the five of us have 3 seats and and the little two (Marian is weighing in around 35 pounds now and John, at 7 months, is about 23!) will be lap infants.

But of course, quazillionly more important is to pray that we would be filled with God's grace and strength in all that we do as we head back to this land that we love.

Thanks friends. Much love to you! We'll miss you so, but we'll be in touch!

  5. Hi Jill,
    I hope you are doing well. I am sure that God provides a nice place for you and your family in the new city! I know that it is sometimes hard to live in a foreign country. As you know, however, "in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."
