Arnie has found his way to Mozambique by now. We really aren't quite sure when exactly he was to show up in Nampula but as far as we know, he was to be there by now. Last week our family got together to say goodbye and spend a couple of hours together with all of us in Denver. It was a fun though bitter sweet.
God continues to direct and challenge our hearts as we prepare to go to Brazil and we couldn't help a few twangs of jealousy that we couldn't head to the field as well.
Jesus said it best in John 4: "Look to the fields for they are white unto harvest, therefore pray that the Lord of the harvest would send out laborers into the harvest" (Jon's paraphrase).
What a blessing it is to be a part of the answer to that prayer. God is good.

How exciting for Arnie! And I'm sure you are anxious to be heading out yourselves! I'll be praying for you as you continue to prepare for Brazil...and they prepare for you! It is awesome to know that God is already working in hearts before you even arrive!!
thanks for the kind words Leah and for praying for us! We are blessed.

hi Deniel,
I just wanted you to know that I was here and that I really love hearing about all the Lord is doing in yours and Jon's life. I liked your horse picture, it's my new wallpaper. I will have to call you soon and catch up.
Love,
Anita
