Oh my goodness...we hit the road right after church on Sunday. We are done with work, done with packing (well, almost!), time has gone by so quickly!
We hit a tiny snag in that our house didn't close on schedule yesterday, however it was a legal technicality for the buyers and an error on the part of their lender. We signed everything we need to sign and they will wire the money into our account rather than giving us a check. It is now expected to close on Wednesday January 11. Please keep that transaction in prayer.
Tomorrow is a big day around here, loads of people coming to pick up our furniture items that they "dibsed" (is that a word?) months back, helping us load the pickup and helping us do a final cleaning of the house. We are serving pizza lunch.
Then we are off to dinner with my cousin, and then hope to get a good nights sleep, have church with friends and family seeing us off with prayer coverage and then drift south!
Our prayer requests for the next few weeks are travel mercies, smooth border crossing, a host family, relationships with our fellow workers (the Jacksons and the Lumppios) and language and culture acquisition. It's a big list and we appreciate your prayers.
We'll only be blogging and checking our e-mail sporadically for the next few weeks, so bear with us as we begin settling in our new home.
Blessings to you all, thanks so much for your prayers.
