So what now?
This coming Monday we will head out to Fresno, CA to a Christian counseling center where we will attend their Restoration and Personal Growth Program designed especially for pastors, missionaries...anyone in full time ministry, and their families. We will be living in a campus apartment there and anticipate staying around 2 months. Seeing as this is now mid-November.... yes, that means we will be there over the holidays. We are not sure yet as to the campus policies on travel or visits, but considering the intensity of this program, it will likely be best for us to just have a simple, quiet holiday season, just the 4 of us. We will be sad to miss out on spending quality time with all of you, but we are grateful to be given this time to reconnect as a family.
And we'll gladly accept any belated get-together invites in the new year!! :)
We will have limited access to internet while we're there. Please feel free to continue to send messages and updates and we will try to check them as often as possible. Just know that while we are focused on what God brought us here to do, you may not hear from us a lot, but we NEVER forget about all the wonderful people God has brought into our lives and how much you mean to us!
Oh, and if you just happen to have an extra Christmas card to send out...
(Was that subtle enough?)

And as our Pastor Paul reminded us...
Even though we may not agree with God's tactics, or understand them, I trust that in the end we'll look back with Him from an eternal vantage point and say,
"Oh, the depth of the riches and the wisdom and the knowledge of God! How unsearchable His judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out. Who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been His counselor? Who has ever given to God that God should repay Him? For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen." Romans 11:33-36
