Packing up...

Our time in Three Hills is coming to an end. We are leaving Canada on December 21, heading for Switzerland.
We have come here five years ago with a purpose – to prepare ourselves for full-time ministry with Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF). After graduation we stayed on because Markus got the opportunity to build up his flight hours by working as an instructor for PSMA. In the meantime we got the different assessments for the application with MAF done. Markus has now reached the 1000-hour mark, and passed his technical flight evaluation with MAF. So, it’s time for us to move on and get the remaining interviews with MAF Switzerland done. We hope to get officially accepted with MAF Switzerland by February 2010. Once accepted, we will be able to start raising support.
These were the facts. The emotional side of it is that we will once again have to leave dear friends and - believe me - that takes a lot of energy.
In Switzerland we were able to rent a 3 bedroom apartment already. However, I'm still looking for a job. The plan is that Markus will stay home with the kids and set up and organize our speaking engagements.
As you can see, we are about to do a step of faith and we sure appreciate your prayers!
