Counting Down The Days

Almost everyday, Jacob reminds us how many days we have left before we return to the States. Today the count was at 24 days. Yikes! We still have so much that needs to get done. Jacob and Anna are out of school next Wednesday and Jeff will offically end his Principal role next Friday when he shakes that last graduates hand. Then the mad dash of cleaning, packing, and painting can begin for two weeks. We have seen God answer some major prayers in the last few days, yesterday we sold our van! What a big relief for us. Yesterday, we also met with a man whose family will be moving into our home in August. They have agreed to purchase the rest of our belongings so we won't have to move everything out. These answers are reminders to us that God continues to provide for all of our needs and guides our paths daily. Thank you for keeping our family in your prayers as we continue to say goodbye to friends and transition back to the States. Some other prayer points to remember for us:

• Pray that God would provide the right job for Jeff. Our support and insurance will end in September.
• Pray for Jacob and Anna as they are realizing how hard goodbyes are as they spend this last week with thier friends.
• Pray for our stress level that it would be kept at a minimum as we still have so much to get done.

The clock is ticking, back to work!
