We are on the way!

Hello dear family and friends--

    As I write we are sitting in the Atlanta airport about to begin the trip to the Africa Mercy Ship in Cotonou, Benin. We are excited and pray that this will be a great time in marriage, as we are hopefully able to spend a lot of time together. I will be assisting Nathan as he operates, which will be another great opportunity for us to be together in ministry.  As many of you know, the Lord provided wonderful buyers for our house and we were able to move a few weeks ago. This has been a busy few weeks, but a great time to watch the Lord confirm His calling for us to live long-term in Peru. We are so grateful for your friendship, support and love throughout this whole process. We will miss you all very much, and cannot wait to visit with you again when we return. We hope this blog will be a great way to keep us in touch while we are away.
