Countdown to Seminary

We are in the final weeks now!  Only three weeks until we arrive in LA.  Just in case you're wondering what our travel plans are:

Sunday, 10 July - final Sunday at Riverbend Bible Church.  We fly to Auckland at 3:15 pm, staying with our family for two nights before heading out.
Tuesday, 12 July - 1:00 pm flying to Nadi on Air Pacific.  We get to spend a night in Fiji, just for fun!  Well actually, the Lord provided these flights for us at an amazing deal of half price of what it would've been if we didn't stay overnight.  Who could say no to a night on a tropical island??  We made sure to get a hotel with a pool and a waterslide (yippeee!)
Wednesday, 13 July - Fly to Los Angeles on Air Pacific.  We leave Fiji at 10:15 pm, and arrive in LA at 1:20 pm... within an hour of the Majors (our NZ friends/"family") who are flying direct on Air New Zealand.

It feels so strange to be packing up, moving, selling our posessions... but to be honest, it really hasn't sunk in yet.  I don't think we'll realize it's happened until we're actually in the air, flying away from the South Pacific.  Please pray for us over the next few weeks as we go through many good-byes to dear friends and family.  We need God's help each day, so please pray for us.  What a blessing that His mercies are new every morning.  Great is His faithfulness!

  1. Reuben and Verity,

    I'm so excited for you guys to come to North America, and hope we're able to catch up again soon. I will certainly be praying for you both over the next weeks and months. Thank you so much for being vessels of Christ. You have been such examples to me, and I think of you both often.

    Miss you both heaps,
    Love from your Son
