Happy Birthday, Mom!
Happy Fall!!! It's been an eventful month (in our hearts). This picture was taken at a botanical garden type place that we found near our apartment.
Life is moving along at a steady pace. Barry teaches English in the mornings at the church now. I think he really enjoys teaching and working with the young adult students. We're still doing the Sunday night English worship service and Barry still leads Bible studies for various age groups during the day on Sundays. Things at my school are going well. I enjoy working with the kids.
The latest news is that after praying and thinking and talking extensively, we feel like we need to stay a bit longer in Korea. The plan is to come home for Christmas and then continue our work here for a little longer. I will still work at the school, but I will have some weekdays open to wrap up some of the KidsWorship projects I need to get to.
There are a lot of details yet to be dealt with, but we're trusting that God will help us fill in the gaps as He leads us. We may have already found a potential new renter for our home in Statham. We're working on those details now. We'll need to pay someone to move our junk out and do some painting then the house will be ready to go. That saves us the headache of having an unoccupied house in the U.S. and it will help a little with the mortgage payment.
We're all really excited about coming home for a bit. It'll be so nice to catch up with friends and family in Georgia. We'll need to borrow or rent a car while we're home and we're still working on living arrangements, but it's falling into place little by little.
While we're home we will lead a 2 week trip for a group of folks from South Korea. We're not sure how many people are coming yet, but we know that we will spend 1 week in Georgia and then we'll split up and spend the other week in either Nashville or Orlando. We plan to do some recording in Nashville and the other group is attending a conference in Orlando. The dates will fall between January 9th and 23rd. I'm happy to have the opportunity to see my two "worlds" come together -- Koreans in the U.S. among my home friends and family.
I guess that's it for now. Love and miss you!
