100%!!!!!!!

News Flash! We are fully supported missionaries to Argentina! Woohoo!

Received word this morning that a church in Michigan voted to take on the remaining monthly support to get us to 100%!

(What in the world did we do before exclamation points were invented?!)


AND (Yes, there's more!) our home church took up a love offering to help with our outgoing fund and collected more than $2800.00!

PRAISE THE LORD!
HE IS GOOD ALL THE TIME!
ALL THE TIME HE IS GOOD!


I'm having heart palpitations with the sheer joy of the moment :-)

Things remaining...eye exams on Friday morning, figuring out how to deal with our Sprint phones (will it be cheaper to continue plan until contract runs out? or pay fee for bailing early?), load another pallet, spend as much time with loved ones as possible, visit three more churches, line up land transport for our container from the port in Buenos Aires to Carlos Paz, buy a few remaining items we need to take with us, spend as much time with loved ones as possible, get rid of the "junk" still left at the parsonage that we don't want, load the container on August 11th (we think that's the date), spend as much time with loved ones as possible...and keep a brown paper bag handy at all times for frequent bouts of hyperventilation.

BECAUSE WE LEAVE IN 17 DAYS!!!

How exciting, praise the Lord that you are fully supported!!

It was so good spending yesterday evening with y'all, thank you. Now I pray that in between all the busy-ness you can spend as much time with loved ones as possible.

Gloria a Dios! He is GOOD indeed!
Sí, Dios es bueno!
Indeed it was wonderful to be together.
Thank you for ALL your efforts on behalf of Mother and Dad and for pushing me to take up my responsibilities as the 'eldest'.
You all and Alan's have done so much!
