We are officially at 100% of our support, approved to purchase our plane tickets, and preparing to leave for Argentina on March 4th!!!

We want to apologize for not keeping everyone more up to date on our status recently, but we were trying to confirm our departure date for Argentina. We are now ready to book flights for departure on March 4th from Denver and arriving in Buenos Aires, Argentina on the 5th. Another missionary will be meeting us there and will help us get to Tucuman where we will be residing during our language study. We will start out staying with a family from the church and eventually will rent our own apartment.

We are both excited and nervous about leaving, but very thankful to all the people who have helped us get to this point. Your prayers, encouragement, generous gifts, and words of wisdom have helped us during the past year in many ways. We have been blessed by your grace and the grace of our Father. We feel humbled, but excited for the coming months and years in Argentina. It will be a joy to begin sending newsletters from Argentina and share stories of what is going on there.

In the next week and a half we will send out a full length newsletter, but for now we just wanted to keep everyone updated.
