While much of our week has been caught up in the volunteer team from the University of Mobile, it was also a big week for Sarah Beth. As you can see from the pictures, she attended her first formal last night. On Friday, she was elected as Vice-President of the junior class for next year. We can't believe our "baby" is almost a grown up. Continue to pray that God will be at work in the transition of our children to their new culture. Your prayers are working!
This is a busy week--RamCorps has performances every night, and sometimes during the day, too. They are an amazing group of young people, and already God has been faithful to return tenfold what we invest here--last night alone, we had five new people ask to join our English Club. Amazing! Please continue to pray for their time here in Moscow.
This has been such an encouraging week for us. After sitting in class every day trying to learn this hard, hard language, it is so great to be able to go out and use it and feel successful with it. Last night, several people commented on our (Marc and Kellye's) Russian and how well we spoke. God has used that to really encourage us to stay the course and really devote ourselves to the language anew. Please continue to pray for our language acquisition.
Be thinking of us this week and praying. Who knows what God is about to do here? We don't have any idea--but it is certainly a great thing to be in on what He's doing and where He's doing it. Thank you for your prayers and support--know that we never, ever take them for granted.
Blessings!
Kellye (for all)
