Hey everyone, the weather is finnaly changing here in NC and its much more pleasant to be outside. Laurence is growing up big and strong, in fact we had his first time at the beach the other weekend and he loved it. The waves and the sand delighted him to no end.
Thank you all for the continued prayer support, and for those who have reached out to offer us support during this time of transition. It has all been apreciated greatly.
Too that end, we have exciting news to share. After prayer and deliberation, seeking council from peers and those wiser than us, we have decided to begin the application process with another sending agency. This agency is known as Reaching and Teaching. Ill include a link to their website below. We have reached out to the local recruiting person for Reaching and Teaching, and Gideon will be representing our family at a Reaching and Teaching Conference this month to learn more and begin the process of applying.
Please join us in prayer as we seek out this opertunity, we are hoping that this is what God has for us next so we can continue to seek Him through our call to missions.
As for a praise report, we have been able to course correct our lives to be better suited to our needs. We were close to leaving previously, so we have made choices that only benefited us in short term because we thought we would not be in the USA for much longer. We have since been able to move to a better living situation this past month, make some adjustments to our lives and budget, and continue to see Gods faithfulness in all things.
Please be praying for us as we seek out this new opertunity with Reaching and Teaching. We will keep you updated as we know more.
Here is their website: https://rtim.org/ please feel free to reach out to us if you have questions, we would love to answer them as much as we can.
With love,
Gideon, Emma, and Laurence Owens
