Papua New Guinea Bound

Our visas to Papua New Guinea are approved; our passports have traveled to the embassy in Washington, D.C. and returned to us with visas inside; we've purchased plane tickets! We will leave the U.S. on May 16 and arrive in PNG on the 20th. This is the culmination of much prayer and preparation, and we're ever-grateful for your prayers. We're all excited to get going after what feels like a long time of waiting. And we're all a little nervous as we are actually going to set off. The kids are excited to go as well, but they're also sad to say goodbye to the wonderful friends they've made here.

We've been visiting family and saying goodbye to friends over the past few weeks. It's certainly bittersweet to be leaving, but we're so blessed to have a community of friends we already know waiting for us in PNG!
