After years of praying and seeking the Lord’s will, and after over a year of raising support and traveling across Wyoming visiting churches, we’re excited to announce that we’re officially going! We got the green light a few weeks ago to purchase plane tickets and make preparations to head to language school! We can’t begin to tell you how exited we are about this, and how encouraging it is to see years of prayer from us and from the many wonderful believers in our lives lead to this moment!
This means not only is it the Christmas season, but for us it’s also the season for CHANGE! November 30th will be Nick’s last day on staff at College Heights Baptist in Casper. We’re also moving out of our house that week to live with Sara’s parents for the month of December. We’ll spend December visiting family and friends, selling the rest of what we own, packing up for language school, and celebrating the birth of our Savior. Then we’ll head to Denver on December 30th, and board a plane on the 31st to fly to San José, Costa Rica.
We’ll spend Dec. 31st-Jan 3rd getting settled in there, then go through orientation for language school starting on the 4th (our 9th anniversary!), with full classes beginning on the 11th. We currently plan on being at language school through August 10th, then return to Casper on August 15th for a few weeks of seeing family and friends, visiting churches, and collecting the things we’ll need before we drive to Ciudad Guzman, Mexico! Be in prayer for us during this chaotic time as we make this transition. Pray for our family and friends that we’ll leave behind, and for our children who are already struggling with the changes. Pray that through all of this, we’ll keep our eyes on the Lord, and that He will be our focus during this time, so that we’ll be prepared spiritually as well as physically for our move to Costa Rica! Thank you for all of your prayers, they obviously work!
