We arrived in California to give updates to some of our supporting churches as well as present in new churches for possible support. We faced some unexpected delays with Jon cutting his head on a dinosaur statue at a rest stop and the van breaking down after presenting our calling at a church. We are currently presenting and giving updates in churches in Northern California.
It was exciting to reserve our airline tickets to depart from Detroit Metro at 6:00a.m. on January 6th, 2011 and arrive in Lima, Peru at 10:10p.m. that same day. Less than three months from fulfilling God's calling on our life of being missionaries in Peru.
Thank you all for you prayers and support.

"Jon cutting his head on a dinosaur statue at a rest stop"
I don't think I even want to ask HOW that happened!!! I bet it was a funny story though......hope he's okay and healing well!!!
So excited that you're so close to leaving!! I know the road has been long and arduous!! Praying for strength, protection, provision, and peace as you experience this vision fulfilled!!
We were at a reststop in Arizona and he was ducking beneath the dinosaur to get a picture. He thought he moved out of the way to get up and WHAM! turned into it! Blood EVERYWHERE and I (the squeemish one when it comes to open head wounds) couldn't even look at it! It's not the blood that scares me, it's what's underneath it! He found a mirror, looked at it, and thought he'd be o.k. A couple of days later, he dug a chip of paint out of his head from the wound! I could look then and he didn't have anything else in there. Just chalk it up as another one of our stories we'll be telling people in the future! :)
