We have delayed in writing an email regarding our progress with our move to Australia as it has all been up in the air up until yesterday. Just last Friday there was a chance that we would have had to wait another few months in Uganda due to visa issues. However, God worked it out and we now plan to leave next week. It is all going very fast now. The packing company come in on Thursday to pick up our belongings that will be shipped to Australia.
Simon and I have been busy pulling the house apart the last few months. It is amazing what you collect over a 15 year period despite doing clear outs once in while. However, thankfully we had the presence of mind to start early so that we didn't have to do it all at the one time. It has been a gradual process.
Our plan is to head to Switzerland next week for two weeks before heading down to Australia. We are looking forward to seeing family again as well as Simon's Dad's fiancée to be who we haven't met yet.
We would value your prayers as we say our final goodbyes. It still hasn't sunk in that we are leaving Uganda for good just feels like a furlough year. However, I am sure that will sink in soon enough. Pray for Joshua as he has a chest infection and not getting enough sleep because of it and Zara starting coughing this morning. We have all had our exit medicals to check for parasites etc. Simon and Zara were the only ones that tested positive and took some medicine for them. Joshua and I were bug free :) However, do pray for good health to return to Joshua and Zara.
We will keep you updated as and when we have a date for leaving. Thanks for lifting us up in prayer we appreciate it. The title of our sermon series at church is "Pray First". Definitely been a good reminder during these days. If you are interested check it out at .http://www.freedomchurch.cc/
