Time Keeps Ticking!

Time keeps on ticking as we prepare to head to Ecuador. We continue to have things that crop up preventing us from leaving in the time frame that we were hoping, first with not being able to leave in November and now already in February surpassing the time frame of January. It's not that waiting is such a bad thing, especially since we get to be doing that here in Canada but it's hard to not have a specific time to be going. This time we are waiting for the Ecuadorian government to change one word on the paperwork for us to be invited by the church down there. We have all the other paperwork that needs to be done here and waiting in an envelope to be sent to the consulate in Toronto as soon as we get the invitation from down in Ecuador. Unfortunately, this delay means that we can't book tickets or give everyone a final date of departure. I think it would be easier if we could do something more to get the process moving but this is only delayed because of the Ecuadorian government and the time it takes them to change some of the wording. I do feel better about everything knowing that 6 out of our 8 bags are packed and waiting to go as soon as we are ready with the paperwork. So we are as prepared as we can be while we wait for this paperwork. So please keep this process in your prayers as we patiently wait on God's timing to be in Ecuador. Only God knows what time is best for us and what He has planned in the meantime. Hopefully, we will get word sometime in the next few weeks on this paperwork and be able to send the rest of it soon to the consulate in Toronto. We will keep you all updated once we hear more. Thanks for your support and prayers during this time.
