November 2017
The year has gone by so fast! We have been on the road a lot during our time here in the states but we are planning to slow down a little in the next month or so. We are looking forward to spending the holidays with our family just before we return to Bolivia. As missionaries, we don’t get to spend a lot of holidays with family so we want to enjoy it while we can.
In our last letter, and also in an extra email we sent out, we asked everyone to pray for some medical issues with our daughter. At the beginning of November we had her evaluated by...

We hope you have had a great summer. This summer has kept us very busy on our furlough. We have had a lot of traveling in the last few months. We have been anywhere from the Norfolk, Virginia area to Dallas, Texas. We have met a lot of new friends and reacquainted with several past friends. This has also been a time that we have been able to spend with family which has been very special our the children. Last month we celebrated our 4th year as missionaries in Bolivia. We arrived on the 28th of August, 2013. It is fascinating to see

What an exciting time to be serving the Lord! With all the
things going on around us in the world, we know His coming could not
be long. It is great to have the opportunity to serve Him till that day
comes.
We have been fairly busy with our time in the states. It started out a
little slow due to our unknown return date but it has slowly started
getting more busy. Even with us being in the states, our projects are
continuing in Bolivia. I just received word last night that

Another two months have come and gone very quickly and we have been very busy.
As you may remember, we had to return from our stateside furlough early to finish our residency paperwork. We are happy to report that after 4yrs of work, we are officially Bolivian residents. This has taken a lot of time and a lot of money. We are happy to have this behind us. However, we have something else we may do. Because our children were born here and are Bolivian citizens, we now have an opportunity to become citizens too. This would make all of us dual citizens of the USA and of Bolivia. This will give us more

Hello from the hot and humid jungle of Bolivia! We were able to return to Bolivia in February and have settled back in just fine.
This week we were finally able to start the final process of our residency. Everything seems to be going fine with this. It was MUCH more expensive that we were expecting. We had been told it would cost us about $500 to finish, however, it is costing us over $3,000!!! I am not sure how that happened!!! We had saved about $1,000 expecting it to be more expensive than originally told, but no where near $3000. Please pray that the Lord will help to provide the money we still need to finish.
We also have interesting news that we just found out. Because

It seems weird to be writing the numbers 2017 on our prayer letters. Another year has come and gone. We look back and see how God has blessed us and allowed us to be in the ministry. What a great honor and privilege to be able to serve Him.
Since our last letter, our time has been quite a bit different. We spent most of November filling in for a local Bolivian pastor during his absence. I really enjoyed my time in his church and it was a great blessing to be able to help him. He and his family have been great blessings to our family personally It is because of them that we are legally able to be and
