In new news, after lots of prayer, we have decided to head to Bolivia to work with a program there called International Orphanage Union (www.ioubolivia.org). Unfortunately, because the States and Bolivia are not exactly bffs, there is a crazy amount of paperwork we have to do before we can head down there. Further, it looks as though we have to go back to the States to do so.
We are emotionally mixed on going back as we had hoped to leave from Colombia. However, our time in Colombia has been a fabulous preparation for what is ahead and we will be able to bring back only what we need (vitamins-yes, business suit-no). And of course it will be great to see friends and family. We're not sure of our dates just yet, but it looks as though we will head back to DC August 12th and hopefully be in Bolivia in September.
Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we prepare for another adventure. Pray that the paperwork would be expedited and that the details would fall into place. Also, start looking at your calendars to see when you are coming to visit us :)
