Alabama<\/span>…we made it! \u00a0Well, what a whirlwind of activity our last few weeks have been. \u00a0We finished Pageant. We packed up our stuff and cleaned up the house we had been house-sitting since June. \u00a0We had Christmas<\/span> at Rob’s Mom and Dad’s. \u00a0We neatly (yeah right) put most of our stuff into storage while we are away in Alabama. Now we are getting settled into an e<\/span>fficiency apartment<\/span> that has been provided to us, and we are exceedingly thankful. \u00a0Here are some pictures of the apartment. \u00a0We have decided to affectionately call it “The Fish<\/span>” instead of home or the apartment. \u00a0(Get it? \u00a0The Fish, as in e-fish-ency apartment.) \u00a0We like to keep things fun…you know…for the kids.<\/p>\n

We will be here in Alabama<\/span> for about 5 weeks and we are so excited about spending this time with our family, friends, churches, supporters, and anyone else who would like to be a part of this team to reach Tanzania<\/span>. \u00a05 Weeks may seem like a long time, but this time is going to fly by.<\/p>\n

In terms of our plans for leaving, we are on-schedule to depart on the 2nd of March. \u00a0I guess we should start some sort of countdown…maybe Facebook is the venue for that. \u00a0We still need our visas<\/strong>, so pray<\/span> for that process please.<\/p>\n

In terms of financial <\/span>support, we currently get 70% of what we need each month. \u00a0We are confident that God will provide us 100% of what we need each month. \u00a0We are praying that we will be at 100% of the recommended support before we leave for Tanzania. \u00a0If you want to be a part of the team, please contact us. \u00a0Please pray <\/span>for more financial partners. \u00a0Please pray <\/span>for our spiritual growth these weeks as we learn to deal with so many changes. \u00a0Please pray <\/span>for our kids to enjoy this time in Alabama and begin to understand\/accept all the changes we must go through. \u00a0Oh, and please pray <\/strong><\/span>that we will have a place to stay in Fort Lauderdale between 8 Feb and 2 March.<\/p>\n

While we are in Fort Lauderdale in Feb, we are planning a yard sale <\/span>so start saving your pennies now and plan on coming out to take advantage of some great ‘going away’ deals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
