Dear Friends,
Wanted to send out a brief update and thank you for praying for paperwork for us these past 2 weeks. After Christmas we have been in the coastal town getting Dina’s passport renewed. And just yesterday we had an interview for her and it should be in our hands in a couple weeks! We are really thankful that is was able to go through as there was a question about whether she could still get it renewed. The Lord provided two people to step in to help and we were SO thankful. So now tomorrow (Wed) morning we will head back into the village. We look forward to reconnecting with our team and friends interior. It’s been a couple since being home. We were able to meet up with my sister and family up in Malaysia. It had been 3 years since we were last together and now they have a sweet little girl. Our girls loved playing big sister to their cousin and we were able to enjoy a hot tropical Christmas with lots of swimming and catching up! We’re so thankful to the Lord that it worked to be them for the Holidays!
Hope you’re enjoying a new year and that your sights are set on the Lord. One thing that keeps going over and over in my head is that God’s plans, timing, and gifts(and even lack of them for a time) are perfect. Such rest I can enjoy when I remember that He is Soveriegn, purposeful, and actively involved in my life!
Blessings to you and thanks again for each of you that have blessed us with a financial gift, prayer gift, and care package. So many of you have touched out lives this last year and we THANK YOU!
Andrea, Tim, Dina, & Abby
