Time is Flying...

Wow, only a little over 2 weeks left here in Rwanda!  Please be praying for us as we try to sell off our personal belongings and also finish preparing to leave our staff here in charge of the ministry.  We have good staff people that we trust will handle well the work helping the children and families in our program.  This is all new to them so please pray that God would help them to work well together, that they would get into the rhythm of their positions, and to make this transition as smooth as possible.

Please also pray for us as in the next 2 weeks we need to sell a lot of stuff.  We have both big ticket items (like our car, the quad, extra tires & wheels) as well as medium (refrigerator, washing machine) and lots of small stuff.  Pray for God to bring the people who are ready to buy all of these items and thus help us be on our way.

We leave Rwanda May 31st, in the evening.  We arrive in the USA very late on June 1st.  Please also pray for us personally as their is a lot of stress, for everyone in the family, facing these kind of changes.  Nate is perpetually excited, he just can't wait for America & it's practically all he can talk about.  KaLia is happy to be going back to her family & friends there, but she has also made good friends here and leaving them is painful.  Kelly and Michael Jr. are excited but also have to face the reality of leaving some people behind when they go.

Pray for all of us to transition well into life in the USA.  It will be lots of changes, lots of work, but we know God has good things in store for us as well as for Ten Talents International.

Thank you for believing with us.
God Bless You,
Lisa

P.S. I hope you all had a good Mother's Day.  My Mother's Day this year was good, can't you tell?
That's me getting my foot massage & hair brushed.  Ahhh!
