Marching through chapters

It seems time is going much faster than normal! The novelty of living in a new place has worn off for Tabitha who asked several times yesterday if she could go home. She is obviously fully aware of the changes around her and keeps asking if we can go in the aeroplane.

Andrew finished formal work this week. We were both invited to La Raza on Thursday evening for a special meal with the team and a kind of formal goodbye before the church service. Andrew spoke and it was a good time, though difficult emotionally. It was a foretaste of the difficult goodbyes still ahead and yet we are looking forward to being reunited with friends and family.



We mentioned last week that we have our house on the market and were looking for a car. Well praise God we now have a car and it seems there are a couple of viewers interested in the house. Hopefully something will come of that. We patiently wait for God's timing and continue to be amazed at how He blesses.

It was fun this week to go a pick out some games equipment for the new play area at La Loma. We have arranged that the first group to use it will be MOPS in a couple of weeks. We are so excited about how this simple addition will facilitate in the children's work and see families added to the church and to the family of Christ.

This week we will largely be focussing on packing and goodbyes and appreciate your prayers for our health and stamina. Pray too for the MEFI team as they start this new chapter of working together. Pray that they will continue to be unified and experience God's blessing in numerical and spiritual growth.
