Dear Friends and Family!
We arrived safe & sound on Romblon Island a week ago, praise the LORD! The travel from JFK to Manila, then to our island was challenging and exhausting, but we are joyful to be back!
One of the current challenges is that none of our vehicles are running at this time, and many other repairs are pending. This is overwhelming to say the least…please pray for this.
Also, we were just told that our 9g work visa can not be renewed. We’d need to have our work visa “downgraded” to a tourist visa. This might take 30-45 days, and then, the immigration bureau will force us to leave the country. We might be able to return after a few days, though…please pray for this also…
Finally, we are having a “Christmas” kid’s verse club tomorrow morning, and the kid’s will hear a Gospel presentation, and also take home a 11lbs bag of rice!
Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year to you all!
Thanks for praying with us and for us!
In Him!
