I never realized how impatient I was firstly, until I had kids…..and secondly, until I moved to another country. God has used this journey to grow me in ways I didn’t know I needed to be grown. He’s teaching me patience in waiting for things like hot water, heat, running water, electricity, our internet to [...]
Our home church wil be sending a 7 member prayer team down here from Sept. 29-Oct. 7. We are sooo excited to have them here. This will be a special team, the vast majority of all that they will be doing is praying. They will be the first team to visit us and will have [...]
One of the best things that can happen to you when you are new in a community is to get invited to a birthday party. Our family attended our first today for the son of Pablo, a guy who sought us out because he wanted to practice English. We met him in March at his [...]
Monday was the first day of school for Malachi. There was supposed to be some sort of opening ceremony for the year but it rained so they did not have it. Instead they had the kids in the classrooms…and Malachi did surprisingly well. It took some warming up to the teacher, but he did after [...]
We’ve been in Argentina for one month! We’ve been missing you all and really wish we had internet access at our house. Please pray for the pole to be installed by the phone company, we can’t have a phone or internet until thats in place. This week has been a very exciting and somewhat sad [...]

This morning we visited Malachi’s school. Here’s a picture of the outside and a picture of Chi and Ellie getting to know the playground in the back. It seemed to be a very nice school. It put us at ease finally being able to see and talk with the faculty. We met his teacher, Paola, [...]
I really wish we could have been updating this more, it just hasn’t worked out. Not having a phone or internet in our house has really limited our ability to communicate with those back home. We did get all of our luggage! And nothing was lost or stolen! Thank God for that! That was a [...]
Wanted to let you all know we made to Argentina just fine, the flight went great. We’re tired and exhausted, but feeling good overall. Half our luggage did not make it though. Our layover was in Panama so 12 of our boxes did not make it out of there. They are supposed to arrive tonight, [...]
So we went to the consulate this morning to give them the “Letter of Invitation” from Argentina. It was only allowed to be opened by the Consulate. She told us before that there was a possibilty that we would need a ‘proof of relationship’ from our organization and have it notarized. We got that done [...]
