Coming Home - Prayer Request


Well it is less than a month till Natalie, Tré and I are due to return to the States, after having been here in Papua New Guinea for nine months. This of coarse means “Panic Stations”! Well, not quite, but we will need to grab a hold of every little bit of grace God gives for this time. It only just feels as though we are getting settled and already its time to leave. Our time in PNG has been amazing and a real growing experience, not just spiritually and emotionally, but literally. We now have one extra member of our family. Both Natalie and I are so grateful for this time, for the relationships we’ve made and the time we have had as a family, with our “PNG” family. Its going to be hard to leave.

We have started to refine our wardrobes and cull our belongings, down to bare essentials and items with emotional attachment. The thought of packing up our life here is some what overwhelming, but even greater is the thought of starting again, once we return to the States. Both scenarios amplified by the fact that we are doing it with a three month old. This in itself is a new experience, because we have never moved, traveled, or anything with a baby before. Let’s just say, “The learning curve is steep”.

The thing that weighs heaviest on our minds right now, and the reason we request your prayers, is finances. Tré and I do not yet have airline tickets to get home. We need $2500 (US Dollars) before the end of the month to pay for our airline tickets, and a total of $3500 (US Dollars) before we leave, to cover bills (in both PNG and the US) and travel costs. We know that God is faithful and is more than capable of providing, but it is comforting to know that you are all standing with us to see the provision come about.

We plan to be back in Colorado on the 25th of February, and look forward to seeing everyone soon. Once again, thank you all for standing with us. We promise to update you on any changes that may arise between now and when we leave. We love you all, and thanks again!

God Bless,

David, Natalie and Tré
