We're home!! We made it back after 12 days of time with family and friends at the lake house and back in Rockford....I even got to spend a weekend with some dear college friends in Door County--and will post some pics later---just wanted to let all of you know that are praying...
WE ARE FULLY SUPPORTED!! Praise the Lord! All of the money that we needed has come in...and because God is so good, I just have to mention this...I checked our e-mail today to see the updated total right when we got home, and we were very close, so that was encouraging...but later in the evening, I saw a dear friend for dinner who so generously handed me a little card with a check inside for the remaining amount...God does provide, so we are ready to go! We leave exactly one week from tomorrow, so keep us in your prayers as we prepare, pack, and plan for the weeks ahead! I also want to say THANK YOU to all of you that have given and that are praying for us...you have no idea what a blessing this whole support-raising process has been for us...we are stronger as a couple because of it, and thank the Lord most of all for using this time to teach us to trust Him and rely on His provision for this ministry. We will have some Internet availability while we are over in Northern Ireland, so I will try to provide updates for all of you when possible:)
