The preparations continue. It seems that we just returned from Cambodia. It is amazing how quickly August has arrived. It seems we just returned from Cambodia. We will be on the Tonle Sap, in only one month!
We will be leaving California on August 28, for what I am calling our Tennessee Farewell Tour. We are looking forward to spending time with my family. I am happy that we will be able to visit with another congregation that is considering providing support for our work. We will even be able to go to the University of Tennessee-Montana football game (it will be my last “fix” for three years).
We had our Florida Farewell Tour, at the end of July. It was great seeing Debbie's family. It was nice to have such a relaxing trip, in the midst of our transition. I am hoping that some of her family will be able to come and spend some time with us, in Cambodia.
We just have loose ends to be tied up. The loosest of those ends is selling the house. Prayers are still needed!! I am trying to figure out the best way to let God know that I have learned my lesson -- I know that this will all work out, in His time.
We will miss our family and friends. Thank goodness for Skype and good cellular coverage. But, it will not be the same as being here. It is bittersweet to be leaving such a great place as Pepperdine. I have been blessed to work with such a great team. I am eager to see the great things to come.
The journey continues. It is a great ride!
