a little nostalgia...


Sometimes when I think back about how much we have experienced and grown over these past weeks and months, I have a hard time believing that its only been two years since we left the states. We have now been living here, in this culture -- day in and day out in a second language—for over two years now! In just two years we have moved overseas, lived in two different houses, had a second child, learned a second language, learned how to live a “normal” life here AND managed to stay sane!

However, the past has passed, and now the future is coming at us full force! Classes started back up at the center tonight for our 3rd consecutive fall term of courses. It appears we are setting record numbers in enrollment, seeing many returning students plus referrals from former students. We are excited to get to know these new students and to see who we can build deeper, more meaningful friendships with. Its also really fun now that we are out of formal language study since we are being able to set our own schedule more, albeit busier, but we are in the phase where we are picking more of our activities and narrowing down where we invest our larger portions of time.

We continue to watch and wait and see what God wants to do in our lives. Continue on this journey with us as we enter into this new phase and see what the future holds!
