Happy Thanksgiving!
Thanksgiving marked our first major American holiday in PNG and it was a sweet time of fellowship and fun with our teammates. A common theme around the table was our gratefulness for one another. We are thankful for the Lord's sovereignty in preparing each of our families and bringing us here to work together and complement one another with different gifts and abilities.

Christmas Cards:
Many of you are already on our fridge from last year's Christmas cards and we would LOVE to update pictures and add new ones! So if you have a few extra stamps (3 regular or 1 international) please add us to your Christmas card list this year.
Our PNG mailing address can always be found at the bottom of our emails!

Video Update:
In this month's video, we'll give you some updates on what's been going on over the last two months. Traveling, infections, generator issues... much has happened and all while we're still trying to keep up with our language study. It's felt a bit like a whirlwind at times, but we are thankful for God's sustaining grace through it all.

In other news, we passed our second language check and are well on our way to our third! If all goes as planned, we will complete the third check on December 20th - just in time to take a nice Christmas break! 
Praise!
  • Our week in the Finisterre mountains was a sweet and profitable time, thank you for praying!
  • God is faithful not only when things are going well, but even when He give us challenging and difficult situations or decisions - this time regarding the health of our kiddo. Praise Him for His sovereignty, wisdom and goodness.

Prayer!
  • Pray for us to be diligent and work through all we need to finish in order to complete our next language check before Christmas. 
  • Pray that we will hold fast to the Lord as our continual source of strength.
  • Pray that our children would fully submit to God’s loving sovereign rule over their life.
  • Pray that we would be faithful with whatever God has for us each day, in both the mundane, and the unexpected.

I enjoyed your newsletter and December video! It’s so nice hearing your beautiful kids❣️ And it was nice getting your text. Continued prayers for you all, and prayers for my mom, if you would. By the way-Florida (except for right now!) doesn’t have much change of seasons either! Haven’t lived here in a while?! 😄
Love you all, and pray God’s richest blessings on you🙏🏼💕
