Exciting, Busy, Overwhelming

The past 10 days have been quite a whirlwind. We have had a baby (praise the Lord, she is healthy), gained two new teammates to help us here (praise the Lord again), returned from Skopje with our llittle one, and haven't stopped since. We are both exhausted, but I am sure we will stay tired for the next couple of years. :0) We are so grateful for all that the Lord has done in the past week and a half. His timing has worked out perfectly in all things.

Kate is doing wonderful. We are learning more and more about how awesome our Lord is through her. Our love for her just overflows and grows every moment. What an awesome privilege to know her and watch her grow. She now has her own blog: http://katejoy.blogspot.com The link is to the left so you can always access it from here. Check out her pictures, and let us know what you think.

And yes, we have two new teammates that arrived last week while we were in Skopje. K and M will be here for about two years to help us run the coffee house. We are so SOOOO very grateful for this. They couldn't have come at a better time, and we are thrilled to have them. Please pray for their adjustment to this new culture. Also, pray for their language studies.

Brian has been running nonstop all week, and when he has been home, he has been working on something. Please pray that he will find time to rest and relax.

My parents come in on Tuesday. Please pray for thier safe arrival.

Thanks for all your prayers, support and encouragement.
