I can't believe that we leave so soon! It seems so crazy to think we'll be on a plane in 2 days! God had provided for us IMMENSELY during our whole time here, and especially lately. One way being that we sold our car--very fast and in perfect timing, also we (actually our parents) found a vehicle for us when we get back home--we have a place to live for the summer (thanks parents and Nick and Katie!), AND are all set up with insurances and money transfers and so many other things! Thank you Lord for your provision!!! We are still waiting on "for sure" news of where we will be come the fall. God has lead us and provided for us throughout everything here, and we'll wait on Him just a little longer to see where exactly he wants us to be.
We have been busy visiting friends and having friends over these past couple weeks. Tonight we'll go to Andy and Tricia's house and say our good bye's to Andy, and tomorrow our friends Hayley and Lindsay will come over and eat the rest of our food!!! :D Tricia is bringing us to the airport on saturday, the same day her son Thomas leaves for Africa--it will be a busy day for her, but she is always so sweet, and always ready to serve. We will miss them so much!!!
Perhaps this will be my last post in New Zealand, as tomorrow I'll be busy cleaning some more and doing the finishing touches on all the packing and then our friends are coming over...and then saturday we are leaving!!!! Our plane leaves from Christchurch at 4:30 and we get into GR on Saturday night at 11:30---whew! What a day that will be!!! We can't wait to come home, it will be difficult as we want to see so many people right away--yikes! But that is kind of a good problem to have :)We are so excited to see everyone!!!! Love you all and God Bless!!!!!
