Praise the LORD!!


Just a quick update. We are here in Skopje Macedonia. We arrived on June 22 and got into an apartment on June 24. PTL!! We are on the 5th floor and have a 3 bedroom apartment (which is great because Joy can then have her own room).
We are really enjoying our time here. We love our team and are getting to know our neighbors. We have started learning the language. Isaiah's favorite new word is Chow-chow (bye-bye). Brian and Debby are each meeting with their own tutor 2-3 times per week. This really helps with learning specifics and making sure we are speaking correctly.
Please pray for us as we continue to make new friends, adjust, and learn the language. Thank you for all who are a part of our team. We love you and miss you!! Blessings to you!!
We will try to write more soon!!

Praise the LORD, we are home from our last conference. We are waiting fo the rest of our support and then we can buy our plane tickets. We are so blessed. We have about 100 prayer partners and we only need about $4,800 in one time gifts. Praise the Lord!! We are hoping to leave yet this month as we have told our landlord that he can rent the house for July 1st. Please pray that we would be diligent to get things done before we leave and that we would be patient as we wait for the LORD's timing.

Support Update
We are so blessed! God is so good to us!! We praise Him for all that He is providing and is going to provide. He has given us 90 prayer warriors on our team!! Praise the LORD, with much prayer there is much power. With no prayer we might as well not do anything. The LORD has also brought in 89% of our monthly needs and 75% of our outgoing expenses!! Praise the LORD for what He has done and is going to do!! LORD willing we will be able to move to Macedonia in June!! Please pray for wisdom and guidance as we prepare to go.
