VISAS

Praise the Lord after several frustrating trips to the government office, we now have our three month temporary visas. These were given to us while they process our request for a more permanent visa. We have an appointment on April 9th to go and get our new visas. The question is, will they only be good for one more year or will they grant us the privilege of a ten-year residence visa? We are, of course, praying for the latter, but will be glad to simply have our papers stating that we are legal and able to stay to continue ministering.

NEW NEWS

We have more good news to thank the Lord for - our family is expecting the arrival of a new little one this fall! As of this letter, Amy is 10 weeks pregnant and though we did have a little scare with a torn placenta a couple of weeks ago, everything (and everyone!) is doing well now. We are looking forward to the birth of this precious baby.

Speaking of “babies” , the church plant here in Val d’Europe will be one-year-old at the end of this month! Wow! Time sure has flown by! Please continue to pray for the growth and development of this baby church. Pray especially that God would bless the leadership team here with unity, love, grace, wisdom, strength and patience to do the work He has called us all to do. Lastly, pray that many Val d’’Europeans will be re-born in Christ as this church strives to make His name known in this community.

Thanking you again for your faithful support and prayers,
Lance, Amy, Kiranna, Aliyah & ????
