WE MADE IT!!!

Well, we finally made it to Jamaica! Praise God! As I sit here on the top of this mountain looking over the Blue Mountains, I am amazed by so many things. First of all, by the beauty of this place. If you've never been here, it's hard to describe, but all we can see for miles and miles is the mountains around and the valley below. Kingston is only about 15 miles away, but it takes about 45 minutes to get up the mountain. I'm also amazed by all the has taken place over the past year to get us to this point. God has certainly done some awesome things. I am very amazed by the fact that God would choose us to do this work.

Our flight in was very uneventful...just the way we like it. We made it thru customs and immigrations. They looked in EVERY one of our suitcases...all 14 of them, but we had no problems. Thank the Lord.

Today, Dulcie and I went into Kingston to do some grocery shopping for a team that is coming in...27 people. Wow! 7 shopping carts. Plus, I drove a mini bus down the mountain and thru the city of Kingston. It was a little nerve racking at first, but we made it safely. If you go to far to one side you hit the mountain, the other side and you fall off the mountain...Pastor Fultz can tell you!

The kids, our 4, are doing very well. They are loving playing with all the kids, especially the toddlers. We went to church in Kingston and so they've been up and down the mountain a few times. They seem to really be enjoying themselves, but they are anxious to get settled in Christiana.

We should be going on to New Vision in a few days and will be getting settled soon. Please keep us in your prayers. We love you all.
