We are ready and excited to be heading into this next phase - school. Fellow BMW missionary family, the Gibbs, are from Australia. So they hosted all of us, the bush team, at their house this week for an 'Introduction to Australia' night. They shared with us some of Australia's songs, food, and vocabulary. In the picture to the right the kids are coloring pictures after talking about Australia's flag. As we learn about Australia we have come to realize that although Australians speak English it is not nearly as close to 'American English' as we thought. It is another language. And I am sure that we are bound to be the brunt of many jokes as we familiarize ourselves with this new language.We have updated our contact information on this blog with our address in Australia. For now the school will be receiving mail for us. We will find out when we get there if we will be getting a personal address, but for now the school's is the one to use.
Even though our time in Vanuatu is up, for now, there is still a lot we haven't shared with you yet. So, over the next few months, as we get time in between our studies, we will continue to post stories, pictures, and videos for you to see. We have learned so much during our time here. We certainly have more insight than we came here with, however, we are far from understanding. There is so much to learn and we are just getting started!
Please continue to pray with us for the salvation of the people to Lord is sending us to, and that this ministry will bear much fruit for His glory, in the years to come. Thank you for praying with us.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year,
From all of us, to all of you
