Nigerian update

Hello to all of you who have been praying,

 

I had spoken in our last prayer update that we did not have the needed green cards to get back into Nigeria. Rejoice with us that we have received them and our flight on the 28th is a go. We leave Syracuse NY at 10:30 am and land in Abuja Nigeria on the 29th at 4:30 pm will drive up to Jos on the 30th. So pray for safe travels and for our luggage to arrive with us. In Nigeria they do not deliver your delayed luggage you have to go back to the airport to get it once it comes. Do continue to pray, as our Green Cards expire in Oct and the quota they are issued under was not renewed so we are not out of  the woods yet and do need  prayer for the paper work that allows us to live and serve in Nigeria.  There has also been some Boko Haram trouble in Jos this past few weeks so continue to pray that the President’s campaign to bring the insecurity to its end will succeed.  We truly do regret that in our short stay here in the States we were not able to see everyone, but know we will make every effort to see you in 2017 when we will be here for 6 months.

 

God Bless you for your prayers and  support.
