Only 8 days left here in the US! Today we're packing up couches, chairs, bed, dresser, dining room table, and chairs. Our apartment will feel rather empty this evening, I expect.
As we tell people we are moving to Nicaragua, Lauren and I have encountered many who have asked if we are 'going for missions.' The answer is 'Yes,' but we believe there is so much more to missions than people moving overseas. Sometimes we respond to that question with 'yes,' sometimes we try to share our perspective, and we spend considerable time discussing it with each other and family and friends. Some of that discussing led to us sharing our thoughts at church on a Sunday morning. If you're interested in an in-depth description of our perspective, you can listen to our sermon at the following link. [Note: Mitch is the speaker, but his message contains both of our thoughts. Also, the recording from Sunday morning did not work. This is a re-recording of the same message, so it sounds a little bit different than it did that morning.]

Make it a great day,
