Thank you all for your prayers. It has been a busy few months and in the last week, things got even busier. We have been praying and waiting for a place to live and for a car, and in one day God answered both of those prayers. A missionary family offered to rent us their house, since they are not living in the area. The house is great for our family for several reasons. It is on the outskirts of Lima in a town called Chaclacayo, which puts us closer to the communities where we are working. It is also in a very safe neighborhood, with lots of parks and even a swimming pool. It is a great place for the kids. Finally, the rent is much more affordable than any other place we could find. We have been waiting to move in, since there was another family living there. Thankfully they moved out, and we received word that we could move in on the 20th of December, just in time for Christmas. That same day, some other missionary friends offered to lend us their car, since they will be gone for the next year. It is a 15 passenger van, so we have plenty of room for the whole family. God is so good. We are so grateful to him and marvel as we see him answering prayers. It truly is amazing to watch his plans unfold and to see his perfect timing.
So the last few days have been spent unpacking boxes and trying to get settled in. We still have a ways to go, but we are starting to feel at home already. We praise the Lord for his answers.
