New Horizons - Familiar Sunsets
The waiting is somewhat over for now in one sense, now we are in the season of frantic preparation. We have been offered and accepted the position of Global Family Teacher Mentor with Mennonite Central Committee, a Christian development and relief organization. We are excited to see what God has in store for us, but also realize that it may mean trials and difficulties meant to see us grow and mature to be more like Christ. God is faithful and we are trusting that he will lead and guide us even as he has up to this point.
In a way we are setting out for a new horizon, since I have never before been a teacher mentor in such a setting and in a full time capacity. But it is familiar as well, since we are going back to Zambia and the town we will be working in is Macha, a 1 hour drive from Choma where we spent 3 years from 2002-2005 where I taught in a BIC high school.
Challenges we will face are: what do we do with our house? mortgage? we have 2 months to get everything together, as we will be leaving before the end of August. I think our next 2 months will be filled with so much to do and so little time. Pray for us please.

I understand some of the challenges you face. The house decision is a big one that we got conflicting advice on. Thank God He told us what to do!
