Current status

Hello everyone!

So right now things are going really well for us. This of course is all due in part to the CEO and his kindness and watching over us.
Lisa had been reminded by a friend to continue journaling and spending time with her DAD and relying upon Him. She had been trying to do things on our own strength and just found herself like Paul, not doing the things she wanted to do, but lacking the strength neccesary to change. Of course, we can't do it on our own. That really brought about a change in her to realize the need she had and to return to journaling and hearing/listening/ communicating with DAD.

Also, we are seeing a real answer in more men coming to our studies. Lisa had been asking about that for quite some time. The answer to this is showing me to ask in order to receive in faith as well. I remember seeing its work over us when we first got here and had so few problems at first, until we could settle in.

So, that has been really neat to see the men coming. A movement always requires strong men. Always, we were encouraged, knowing that this semester we may develop friendships with new students, and that has been the case. The students that we used to see (my students) are now pretty busy preparing for their IELTS test and we have not seen them. That has been sad,but of course, that happens right? And as said above, it only served to bring us into contact with new people.

We are excited for this summer back home, though I'm sure it will also be a very busy time of work, vacation, side-jobs, raising support in order to return, and seeing family/friends, and importantly, preparing for our work here again. We hope that those friends reading this will be able to see us in person soon this summer!
