Well, it's a lot colder than we expected...

We finally made it to Africa! After a 20 total hour flight and a long layover in Jolly Old, we arrived last Wednesday and hit the ground running. We've met several Friends here that have been very helpful. They got us hooked up with an apartment and we're doing great. We've had several adventures so far, most of which included us either getting lost, driving on the wrong side of the road (left is right and right is wrong, kind of like the old boy earring rule) or people not being able to understand us. We are very excited about the three months we get to spend here before moving on to our final destination. God is already doing great works in our lives, and we are excited about the future as we continue to follow his call.

We're doing pretty well so far. We've had a little bit of difficulty adjusting initially, but we can definitely tell that we are progressing to a place that resembles comfort. Part of this progression is due to the discovery of the grocery store and a KFC. I know, I know, but it's way better than the one in Andrews. Y'all can be praying for our transition time - that we would be comfortable with our surroundings enough to focus totally on our time here. Our time at camp last week was incredibly encouraging. It was a neat experience to be sent out from the Snowbird House Church...literally. We left house church and went to the airport. Good times. Thanks especially to Bobby, Maridith, and Fo-sho who came to the airport to see us off.

We love you guys and we'll keep you up to date as we progress! God is good!
