How We Are Doing

Many of you are probably wondering how we are doing being in the middle of a politically unstable country, so I thought I would tell you.

Josh and I are doing fine, really well in fact. We love our students, believe in them, and want to give them all that we have before leave here. We have two more days of class after today, graduation, a couple days to pack up, run errands, clean house, go to the other side of the island where the airport is, and then we should fly out on the 10th. That is if the planes are still flying. (Prayers wanted on that one)

The coup that was supposed to take place on Friday was postponed until who knows when, leaving the country in an interesting state of mind. It's like a sense of foreboding is settling over the city. The weekend was very quite in the city as most people stay inside, hunkered down, waiting for the coup to erupt. It never did. Josh and I listened to Mike Bickle, prayed, played cards, and cleaned house.

This morning brought with it more deadlines of when the coup was supposed to happen. As of this minute, still no coup though there are military personnel with guns in downtown. So we are praying together as a couple, as a class (we had a great prayer time this morning), and as the body of Christ in this country. It's the best thing we can do.
