Big News! Big Change of plans!

Hello friends!

Many of you know we are missionaries in Spain, spending some time here in Bluefield.  The plans were to go back in June of next year.  In many occasions we even considered being here a little longer, in case our girls needed us.

Having some family discussion we came to the conclusion that our middle daughter, currently a Senior, would be better off finishing her HighSchool with friends in Spain.  We first thought of sending her back on her own but we quickly realized the best family decision was to go with her.

SO, we are leaving in January to go back to Spain!  We are excited but have mixed feelings, as we have made some good friends in the area.  BUT we do have to say, that since we have decided, our hearts of full of peace and joy, a confirmation we are obeying God in this direction.

NOW, what does that mean in regards to the classes?

Our last class will be this Saturday, our special Christmas in November!  Even though we will still be around for another month, we have many things to take care of making our time limited.  We have medical check ups, etc., lots of little things that add up.

SO, this Wednesday will be our last weekly lesson ... some Thanksgiving and some Christmas.

On Saturday, all Christmas.  see pics

On Saturday it will be extra special as I will have some friends from TN as well.

I hope, for all these reasons, to see all of you during this week.  It will be extra special, I promisse!  We will have our coffee and cookies as always, and some extra fun ... SURPRISE!!

Hoping so see you all, please confirm assistence so I can prepare your kits!

NOTE ABOUT OUR MINISTRY IN SPAIN: I cannot take heavy things, but you are welcome to donate small items for the ministry there. Not required at all ... but I know it is ablessing to give to God and I would like to give you this oportunity. It will be used in our different groups that meet in Spain. There are about 6-8 different groups of ladies in different parts of Madrid ... the resources are limited so anything, anything is very appreciated. Some ladies cannot afford the material and they have nothing. It could be small paper pads, stamps, stamp pads, mixed media items,dies, embelishments, etc ... I am writing as many of us have materials we do not use and not even plan to use and someone else could use and enjoy it. Especially in this case, it will be used as as means to show God's love to these ladies. Even if you cannot come on Saturday you can bring the items to Hobby Lobby and have a coffee with us. I will share some information of our ministry there as well.
