The Adventure of our Life Officially Begins

It's hard to begin to express in words the emotions that Libby and I have expierenced in the last couple months.  In March we became first time parents to Ms. Eleanor Mae.
Also, at the end of March we ended the lease on our apartment and got rid of many of our possesions.  It isn't just moving to a new place, but getting rid of a place called home for the next few years and setting up anew in a new culture.
In May we were officially recognized as TEAM missionaries to Belgium under Tim & Barbara Downs.
This signifies the start of our work to get to Belgium.  We now begin seeking churches to partner with us so we can get to the field.
It reminds me how much closer we are getting to Belgium and makes me yearn more and more for Europe.  The Lord is developing an increasing desire and interest in all things Europe.  Tonight I found myself watching Sky News (European news).  Anyting that can make me reminisce of Libby and I in Europe is a welcome reminder.
You can pray with us in the following ways:
  • Pray for supportive connections with churches that capture the vision we've been given for Europe
  • Pray for us emotionally as we shift in a very unconventional lifestyle
  • Join with us in praise for the partners we've been blessed with thus far
  • Join in praise for our wonderful blessing, Eleanor: cute and healthy
Thank you for your continued interest in our lives.  We grow more and more excited about what the Lord has in store for us in Belgium.
