Countdown

Hi All,



Well we are on the official countdown now - we leave for Chicago in 4 days (our plane leaves on Sunday morning around 10:50am!) At this point we have fully wrapped ourselves in paradox and are working to learn how to live in the tension of wanting to leave and stay put. The messiness of leaving is all around us and yet, there is a deep beauty about it. In the midst of tearful goodbyes, last gatherings, paperwork, training, fundraising, packing and many many details, there is a sense that all of it is bigger than us and that is quite beautiful and comforting. We are so thankful that God is calling us into a place and to a people in a situation that is much larger than our small vision - it is His work; it is His Kingdom that is being built; it is His people that He is calling unto Himself. Pray early and often and at length that God would surround us and that we would never take our eyes off of Him.



Cheers,

S&K
