Thank You

It's come to be quite a cliche but the saying "you don't know what you've got till it's gone" is most definitely true. Over the past two years we hadn't realized what an incredible community of people we have been surrounded by. It wasn't until we started making a list of all the friends and family to say goodbye to that we realized what a gift we have had all along.

When going to a new country there is nothing more important or valuable than having a support group of family and friends cheering you on, encouraging you, helping you work through the problems, and partnering with you in prayer. I know now without a shadow of a doubt that we have that. From an over abundance of texts, phone calls, and going away parties and sharing hugs, laughs, and tears we know that we are loved and supported, no matter the distance.

We have struggled to wrap our minds around the amount of support we have been given, and for awhile it left us speechless. All we can do is say thank you, knowing that those two words will never be enough to express the gratitude in our hearts.

We love all of you, and wish we could have packed you in our luggage to come along for this journey but we know that "distance makes the heart grow fonder" and that this is a wonderful opportunity to strengthen our relationship with you. Please know that you are loved, appreciated, and missed greatly. But as thankful as we are personally, we know that God has sent us here for a reason and that through all of your love, support, prayers and finances God's children are going to be brought into the Kingdom of Heaven. In all the ways that you have been supporting us it will be a ripple effect into eternity and one day in heaven we may hear those words "Thank you for giving to the Lord. I am here because you gave".
