full of memories, full of good times, full of meetings, and full of fun.&nbsp; The boys have enjoyed youth group, playing their guitars, and so much.&nbsp; It will be hard for them to leave it all behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please pray with us as we say our farewells, especially to our family.&nbsp; As you know, we will be leaving our two daughters in the States this time.&nbsp; Please pray for their continued adjustments and life here.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please pray for our travels, safety, and for all the unknowns.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please pray for our application for work visas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please pray as we move back into the village and literally jump right into the ministry.&nbsp; After we purchase all our groceries in town, move back into the village, and unpack the house, we will host Sports Bible Camp, July 18-23. &nbsp;After three years of not having this event, the believers are so excited that we will be doing it again.&nbsp; This will be a wonderful opportunity for us to get all the believers together and work with them to host this event.&nbsp; Please pray that the Gospel will be clearly taught each day and that many of the teens will trust in Jesus.&nbsp; We will share more about this event as we get closer to that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you.&nbsp; Thank you for your prayer.&nbsp; And thank you for partnering with us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of our best memories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"479\"
