Well, here we are in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic at last! We have been settling in for almost 2 weeks now. We still have no Internet, but we're borrowing from a friend for now. We absolutely LOVE it here! The traffic is certainly different & the language is it's own, but it feels like home. We are where God has called us!
We plan to post some pictures when we finally get Internet. But for now here is a small update and a few prayer requests. Please pray that:
- DeNiel will find courage to drive in the crazy traffic!
- We will not be so fatigued from the heat.
- God will use us mightily here for His glory & the furthering of His Kingdom.
The kids really like our new home. Kylie & Brooklin will be home schooled this year (Jacob too, of course!). During this next year Anthony & I will be training for his new position & learning more language (Dominican!) culture. The IMB is a wonderful agency to be with. Thank the Lord that He really is taking care of His missionaries through the churches giving to the IMB.
Thank you for keeping-up with our blog and for your prayers. We hope to post again soon with some pictures of our new country.
