I'm sitting in a hot car outside the home of friends. Still no internet at the house so I haven't updated here yet. Usually it is a matter of send and receive when we come here. Usually I go inside and drink iced tea while I pick up, but our friends are not home!

We are blessed to be back in Moldova. Thanks for your prayer as we traveled. We made it without any problems, but it was a long day of travel. We are fully turned around with our body clocks and keeping quite busy.

We are blessed to have Shauna here, our teacher for the girls this year. They started school yesterday and she is doing so well with them. Lauren was so excited to start Kindergarten with her and Natalie 2nd grade. Elissa is just taking it as it comes. Shauna is living with us for now and she really is wonderful to have along.

A few quick prayer requests. In the next week I'll be meeting with ladies who may work with me and the House of Hope. Please pray that these meetings are God-lead. My Romanian is better than I expected already and all of these will be done in Romanian and without interpretor, so pray for that. But also pray that we'd be of one mind and if they are to work with us, they'd know that from God.

Also, please pray that our internet situation can get remedied quickly. We don't have anything at the house. We live a bit out of the city and the phone company needs only to add something to the line but they just have to get out to get it done. Two weeks ago they said that would be two weeks and it still is not here! So please pray that this moves along. It is not just a matter of e-mail and sitting outside the home of friends, but so much of the work we do now is via internet. Please pray for this.

Thanks for keeping in touch with our prayer needs via this blog. Thanks for praying.
