Application Part 2...done!

We have finished our second part of our application for the International Mission Board. We are excited, but we have heard that the third part is ...HUGE! It includes writing a 9 page autobiography...we're not sure we've lived long enough to fill that many pages!! There are many questions to answer, medical records to submit, job assignments to look through...you get the picture.

We prayed over our second part and sent it in last night. Now, we wait for a phone call from our consultant and to talk through the application so far. So far, the process has been great...but we know that there will be hard times, tedious moments, and long hours of writing yet to go. But, we are praying that God will teach us through the process. We do not even know if God will choose to place us overseas, so we are learning through this journey.

Thanks to those who are praying and encouraging us! We are grateful. We have a few prayer requests:
Jay-That this process will go quickly and that God's will teach us in the journey.
Frances-That I will walk in faith throughout this process.
Anli-That we will be healthy over there.
Virginia Grace-That we be healthy.

I thought that I would include a copy of our "IMB mug shots" for you to view...lovely! Nothing like a passport style photo to make you look like a criminal. Enjoy...
