We've now been in Bogotá just over four weeks. Yesterday was a bit of a sad day for Charlotte. She learned that her uncle in Mobile, Alabama passed away. These are the times when it hurts so bad to be so far away from home. Please keep Charlotte's family in your prayers during this time. Her father is grieving the loss of his brother which is the second brother he has lost in just over 7 months. We are rejoicing that her uncle was a Christian and lived a full and meaningful life here on earth and now he is in Heaven. He was 85 years old and still working. He was planning to go to work yesterday, but God had other plans.
On another note, we are now in our apartment (without furniture). It feels good to start to get settled and we are hoping to receive our furniture on March 8 which is the same day that John Robert will arrive in Bogotá for his Spring Break. We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of John Robert - and hopefully our furniture - but we are more excited about seeing John Robert!
We are now in the process of planning our first church planting conference here in Bogotá which will take place in April. We are making contacts with local pastors who have expressed interest in being a part of it and are training some pastors who will be helping to teach the conference. We are excited to see what God will do through this conference.
