That's right... we are expecting our first child!
Due in April, and we are infinitely excited. Of course like any new parents-to-be we are also more than nervous and anxious. With this news we have begun to encounter an added aspect into our fundraising: timing.
We cannot head to Guinea until we have ample funds raised to go [we currently reside at about 35% of funds raised], but with our new addition timing has become of the uptmost importance. We are asking for all of you to please keep us in your prayers as it is now vitally important that we raise our funds by February. If we are not gone by Spring, it would be better, timing-wise, to stay here and have the baby.
A lot of our life is in limbo right now; there are a lot of questions that continued to be asked [many times, as life often does, without sound answers!], concerns and worries that have arisen. We still believe 100% that we are called to minister to the people of Guinea and are anxious to see how God's plan will continue to unfold with this new chapter.
Please, please keep us in your constant prayer as we work through the details of what it means to give birth to or raise a child overseas. There will be a lot of details to work out in the upcoming months and we need your support!
