Survey trip celebration

Within a week of landing back in the US of A, our Memphis lives were back in full session. Work, study, GA work, etc, etc. It was a welcome retreat to get together with our team mates and celebrate a successful survey trip. And it was especially good to see Nina, Brenna and Darian who had stayed with grandparents during the summer.

We really feel like our trip was a success. We survived after all! We endured the stress filled time of preparations, the long and tiresome journey, the jet lag and the demanding schedule. We were able to gather most of the information we intended to gather. Sure we came up with some more questions which are yet to be answered...but we wouldn't want to take the 'faith' aspect out of our journey, would we?!

We celebrated with song, affirmation, praise and prayer. And we're excited to share with you the good news that the Jon, Sara, Nina and Jack will join us in Wollongong! They have an exciting couple of years ahead of them with plans to take them from Memphis to Wollongong through China or Taiwan as English teachers.

We're so thankful to serve God together in Wollongong with these two families. May God use each of us to His glory!
