Beth’s visa approval has come! And now in just a few days we are heading to Papua New Guinea! Friday we fly out of Halifax, Nova Scotia to Boston, MA. We are excited to see Beth’s mom in Boston for a few hours before we board the plane to Phoenix, AZ to visit Beth’s sister and nephews for a few days. Then June 11th we fly out to Australia and then on to Papua New Guinea arriving on June 14th! We would appreciate your prayers for our travels around the world with our little Jonathan!
We enjoyed the last 11 months at home, so thankful for a little extra time to visit friends and family! It was so good to be able to share about our former ministry and future ministry at so many churches! We weren’t able to visit all our friends and family in North America, but we enjoyed seeing so many of you! If you didn’t get a chance to see the video we made about our Interface ministry please check it out on Youtube!! http://youtu.be/lxm1-VcKsMg And sign up to head over to Papua New Guinea for the Interface program! The program has moved to a new location, but it is still an amazing, eye opening and challenging trip for all interested in missions!
