Well friends, here we are. I just finished my last day of work at Cornerstone. Man, the time actually has gone by really fast.

Back in July we spent a week camping with Mike's family saying our goodbyes & tonight, we board a plane to the east coast to do the same with my family. Then we have just one final month here in Colorado before we take off to start our new lives in South Africa.

November 4th is our official departure date, can you believe it? Our Missionary Visa was approved for the maximum time allowed...3 years!!! What a blessing!

We ask for continued prayers as we await our departure. For the Lord to guide us on what to do with our precious puppies, for our support to continue to come in (we are at about 50-60% right now) and for everything else to go smoothly.

We love you all so much and appreciate your constant support & prayers. We'll connect again when we come back from our trip & look forward to seeing all of our smiling faces each week until we leave.
