decisions, decisions...

After a minor crisis of indecision, I have decided to go to Greece the 1^st wk of January in lieu of November. And the much-prayed-over-reasons go like this….

1. Finalizing support....(super close).

2. The Nea Zoi team will be gone much of December.

3. It's one of the last harvests I'll get to participate in, as my Dad will retire someday....(I assume that's how it works....?)

4. I've lived away from home for 10 years and am enjoying this fall with fam in the wide open Idaho spaces.

Thanks for your patience, Friends, as I tie up loose ends and get ready to set sail in 2010. In the meantime, ministry is still happening in Athens! Please pray with me for Ava, an older Russian madame, who opened up to the Nea Zoi team more than she ever had about her loneliness, desperation, and fear. The hope is that she can be connected with a Russian speaking group in Athens for friendship and more.

Meanwhile, down on the farm….
