On our way!

A lot has happened since our last update! The biggest change is that we have moved up our departure date for Bolivia. The new date is June 24th! After talking to some of the NTM missionaries down there, we decided that a June departure would work out better for many different reasons. We will depart from Chicago at 3pm and arrive in Cochabamba at 8 in the morning! We will be exhausted, but we felt it would be better for the twins to travel through the night. We are praying that they will sleep for most of the flight!

Once we get to Cochabamba, we will be met by some fellow NTM missionaries who will take us to the NTM guest house, where we will stay for the first week or so. During that time, we will have some field orientation, look for a place to live, meet our fellow missionaries, and start looking for appliances and furnishings for our new home. We already have some friends down there who have been keeping a look-out for a place for us to live– which we are so thankful for! In our last newsletter we mentioned that we had to build some crates for our stuff and get them up to Minnesota and another organization would ship them to Cochabamba for free for us. Everything worked out beautifully and our crates our on their way to Bolivia as I type this!
