Arriving in Australia......



We have arrived in our passport country of Australia!

The two weeks leading up to our departure from the Philippines on Dec 3, 2013 held all the normal emotions that one goes through when a big change is ahead, like excitement, sadness, fear, dread……..but we were held by the confidence in our God that He has every step already in place for us. Our transition into Australia has been going very smoothly which is a huge praise point and we thank our Lord for His arms around us and for all His plans for us.

 
These are some of the things we did as we said goodbyes:

Committing elders and deacons to the task before them.
Last minute laughs and cuddles


Jubab singing a last song in the Tumpagon
Church with his brother Nel.
 

Lots of hugs and fun with our grandkids! We had a couple of days in Cagayan with Jen and Udi and the kids taking the grandkids swimming and doing lots of fun stuff.

Since being back in Australia, we have been catching up with family and friends and partners in the work and during the next weeks and months, we hope to travel and catch up with many more!

Our phone number here in Australia is 0431 835454. Our email addresses are still the same.

Please feel free to contact us through email or phone call if you would like us to share in your church or to speak at any events. We will be happy to have opportunities to tell of the marvellous works of our Lord Jesus over here in the Lapoc and Dulangan areas.

Our hearts are very full and very thankful!
