Our
Turn to Go!
It’s
hard to believe that we have already been here in Buenos Aires
for over a month. We had hoped to be settled into our own home
by now but with the inflation of the Argentine economy and
ballooning housing market we spent our first 6 weeks on a crazy
Easter egg hunt trying to find an acceptable home in our price
range. This past week we were blessed to find a wonderful home
that’s within our budget! We were feeling discouraged seeing the
limited options in our price range and then out of nowhere God
gave us an awesome deal! We are especially excited to move in as
we know we will be staying put for the next 4 years. This is our
11th move since we got married in 1999 and will be the first
time we will live in a house for 4 years!

The girls are happily adapting to their school with
their friends from last term. When they went into their classes
they were both greeted by many hugs and kisses from their
friends. Joshua wants to go with them to school and I might just
send him next year! We have been enjoying some of our favorite
foods: French bread, milanesa and empanadas to name a few. The
kids are getting back into the swing of speaking Spanish. They
are ordering their own food, asking for directions and we are so
proud of them; a big part of communicating in another language
is trying! It was funny hearing them order ice cream and asking
for Chocolate “Sucio” (dirty) instead of “Suizo” (swiss).
When we told them they just laughed and said, “Well, at least we
are trying.”
We got here just in time for the first Sunday service at “Centro
Cristiano Vida”; the church where Jonathan installed and
developed the TV and radio station. He’s been actively planning
ways to expand the station and work with other churches to do
the same. God has been opening up many doors and we are walking
forward.
Thank you for your support in getting us here! We count on your
help each month to sustain us here throughout this next term.
Please, if you haven’t already filled out a pledge form we need
to make your support official. We still need to raise the last
9% of our budget; with the wild economy here we need to know we
can count on a full work budget and enough rent money.
