Coming to a close

Well, here we are nearing the end of our HA already.  Much has happened!  We again have had the privilege of seeing the Lord work in our lives.  We have met many new friends and have seen lots of places we have never seen before.


Myers with Alison in Hobbiton, New Zealand
 

I'll give just a few highlights.   First, we had one last very fun hurrah with our college student!  We made a side trip through New Zealand on our home in July.  That was great fun and made even more so because we spent our time with one of our previous MK school teachers Allison!  She showed us all kinds of fun places!


Niagara Falls
 

Upon our arrival to the US moments after midnight on July 25th we started with
New Student Orientation at MVNU! Following those exciting days and through the month of August we visited the dentist, the eye doctor (Ethan is sporting contacts for the first time!), primary care docs, Niagara Falls with Susan's folks, Cook Forest with Jeff's folks, a Cleveland Indians game, a rehearsal dinner and wedding of Susan's niece, Jessica's Graduation Party for family and US friends, a family reunion and more. All of that in addition to beginning our speaking engagements!
This HA we have had opportunity to visit churches in Ohio, West Virginia, South Carolina, Mississippi, Pennsylvania and New Jersey!  It is so great to know that we have Nazarene family members wherever we go.  Thank you to all of you who welcomed us with open arms!  We will treasure these times for years to come!
The countdown is on as we begin to get all the loose ends tied up, visit a few more friends and family members and begin packing.  It has been tough, as expected, coming to grips with allowing our daughter to spread her wings.  But, there too, God has been helping us. 
Please continue to pray for us as we prepare for our departure.  We are trusting in God's faithfulness and provisions to meet all of our needs, including Jessica's, in the coming months.
