Dear Friends,<\/p>\n
Wanted to send out a brief update and thank you for praying for paperwork for us these past 2 weeks.\u00a0 After Christmas we have been in the coastal town getting Dina\u2019s passport renewed.\u00a0 And just yesterday we had an interview for her and it should be in our hands in a couple weeks!\u00a0 We are really thankful that is was able to go through as there was a question about whether she could still get it renewed.\u00a0 The Lord provided two people to step in to help and we were SO thankful.\u00a0 So now tomorrow (Wed) \u00a0morning we will head back into the village.\u00a0 We look forward to reconnecting with our team and friends interior.\u00a0 It\u2019s been a couple since being home.\u00a0 We were able to meet up with my sister and family up in Malaysia.\u00a0 It had been 3 years since we were last together and now they have a sweet little girl.\u00a0 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!\u00a0 We\u2019re so thankful to the Lord that it worked to be them for the Holidays!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Hope you\u2019re enjoying a new year and that your sights are set on the Lord.\u00a0 One thing that keeps going over and over in my head is that God\u2019s plans, timing, and gifts(and even lack of them for a time) are perfect.\u00a0 Such rest I can enjoy when I remember that He is Soveriegn, purposeful, and actively involved in my life!<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/tim-ullum\/files\/2013\/01\/DSCN1522.jpg\")
