Blog Name Change!!!
I just realized that we can now change the name of our blog from "Our Journey to Paraguay" to "Our Journey in Paraguay"!!!
We are learning so much about the culture, language and people here now. We are still getting settled in, getting used to living here, learning where things are, learning how things work here, etc. We still have SO MUCH MORE to learn! Thanks for keeping us in your prayers! Some days are better than others, and your prayers really mean a lot to us.
We are also starting to be able to see first-hand the needs that are around us. Some of the needs are ones that God has shown us before (and we are learning more about them and what God is wanting to do). We are also learning of other needs, and we are continually praying about what God wants us to be doing next.
We hope to be able to share some stories here on our blog in more detail than is possible in other places, but it may take some time to get the stories on this blog. We are new to writing and blogging, so please bear with us. We have a vision of sharing stories here about people we meet and what God is doing here in Paraguay.
And, if you don't already know... here are other places where we share other information, updates, pictures, and videos:

Update on Vehicle Fund progress
Since we have not posted here in a while, I wanted to let you know that (for now) it is easier for us to post shorter and more frequent updates on our Facebook page. Note: you do not need to have a Facebook account to access the things we post there since they are public posts.
Here are a few items you might enjoy:
As we visit several churches to share what God taught us during our year of Spanish Language School, we are asking them to contribute to our Vehicle Fund.
Also, you can see some of our pictures from our graduation from Language School.

Preparing to leave for Paraguay
We had a great Christmas and New Years with our families, and now are working hard in our preparations for Paraguay. We have added several speaking engagements to the Calendar, so be sure to check that out. There is a lot to do, so please pray that our preparations go smoothly. We will be purchasing our tickets soon, and we will post the exact date after that time.
