We have tickets, and a flat!

So as to not burry the lead, as the subtitle says we have tickets to fly and a place to live when we get there!

Thank you for all your help and prayers for the final push to get us over the minimum to be able to purchase our tickets to fly to Hungary.

This will be a quicker update as we are in the throes of selling, donating, and otherwise getting rid of all of our things.

We are in the process now of transition...everyone's favorite season...we are helping to prepare Arlo for the move by trips to Ikea to see what our furniture will look like (as well as testing things out to make sure they are comfortable). We have also scheduled a walk through of a potential school for Arlo, we are praying it will be a good fit for him.

We have also been able to find an apartment to move into in Hungary. As a family of four and two cats, most Airbnb's would be out of a sustainable price range so we are thanking God this flat was available and seems to checkoff all of our boxes for our needs.

Our flat has an indoor courtyard with a lot of room to run and even a playground! That wasn't even on our list because we didn't think it was possible, but it feels like a true kindness from God; to soften Arlo's transition and allow him to run like he does here on OMS campus currently.


Prayers:

God's presence would be strongly felt in our new apartment and that it would be a pocket of Eden for us and for others.

My former visa is still technically active which means the rest of the family might be able to come under it which would be incredibly beneficial (and potentially easier for the kids visas). Please pray that the government would look favorably or sign off without much thought.

The day of the flight. It will be a long day with two kids and two cats. But we are trusting God as he goes ahead of us and with us.

For funding as we go on the minimum. We still need to raise close to $2000/month in order to be sustainable on the field.

Thank you all for your continued support and prayers!

November Prayer Focus

November Prayer Focus

For the month of November we are asking you to join us in praying for "bridges" in Hungary. The city of Budapest is characterized by its many bridges that cover the gap over the river Danube between the two parts of the city. We are asking you pray that the team in Hungary can act similarly as a "bridge" between the world and God, the seen

What's the Status?

We wanted to give a pretty direct update of where we are on funding. We realize that a lot of our update letters have revolved around this recently; it's the nature of this season as most of our work right now is funding in order to return to Hungary. We are looking forward to being able to switch gears soon, but for now, we wanted to share the
