Wow has time ever been flying here once again. My parents have come and gone and had a great time. We had an awesome time with them, showing them around Bandung and showing them some the western part of Java. I think that they had a great time, and we most certainly did. So thanks mom and dad for taking the time and money to come and visit it means a ton to us.
Since they have gone we have had to keep busy packing. For the last two days we have had our packers in our house packing up all of our belongings here to send to Papua by boat. So right now our things are in Jakarta being loaded on a boat for Papua. We continue to thank God for how everything works out and how he blesses us.
Janna has already completed language school and I have 2 weeks left. It is amazing that after about 2 years of working towards the goal of getting to Papua, we have almost reached it. Maybe I should not say we, but God, has almost reached it. We have learned how to rely on Him for things. It is amazing how vulnerable we are. I think no matter where we live we are vulnerable but we get into a comfort zone and we think that we have all this power over our own lives. Living outside that comfort zone we really feel that vulnerability and thank God for his work in our lives.
One more very important thing to mention, although it is difficult for me to because it means that I am old, is that our eldest son is graduating from Kindergarden on Thursday. I still can not believe this! WOW! I know for most of you this is sudah biasa (normal) because you have already experienced it but for me this is something. Anyway thanks for all your prayers during this incredibly busy time in our lives.
Tuhan Berkati (God Bless)
