After much prayer and consideration, we've sped up our timeline to leave Scotland and go back to the US. This also means speeding up our arrival date in Malawi.
Tentative 2021 Timeline
February: Leave Scotland, Return to US (Indianapolis)
May: Move to PNW
September: Move to Malawi (originally planned for Jan. 2022)
As we look forward to setting up life in Malawi, this has highlighted some of the one-time fundraising we never finished!
We are still doing research on costs, but it looks like it will total around $50,000 (Eesh! See a tentative breakdown in the “read more” link). We'll finalize that number as the year progresses. Please pray with us for the Lord to gather those funds, as he always does so faithfully.
Every step we make toward Malawi involves more and more risk. So, we take steps bundled with equal parts of joy and terror. Joy because we move in hope that the Lord will meet us. Terror because the risks the Lord calls us to often leave us more vulnerable to failure, looking foolish, or sheer exhaustion. Lord, hold our hand as we follow you into the frayed future of our newly re-jumbled plans for the year.
