Christmas in Michigan!

The Christmas lights in downtown Rochester! 

We are in Rochester Hills, Michigan for the week visiting Shaun's family for Christmas! The trip is a HUGE blessing for us both! Up until a couple of weeks ago we thought that we would only be able to afford to send Shaun home for Christmas, which meant we would be separated for the holidays! But God is SO faithful, and we were able to find vouchers to cover most of my (Jessica's) flight expenses!

We celebrated Christmas with the family on Tuesday and Wednesday because Shaun's brothers are going to be with their in-laws for Christmas weekend. It has been amazing meeting our new niece Siri Grace, and catching up with loved ones.

Thank you to all of our supporters who have made time to spend with us this week! We are so grateful for the meals and coffee dates together, and we are deeply encouraged by your love! We head back to Los Angeles on Tuesday to prepare to leave for Chile on Sunday! The outreach is coming so soon!

Please be praying for us as we trust the Lord to provide the last bit of finances for our outreach team! Also please pray for grace as we pack and finalize all of the details for the trip. We need Jesus!

God bless you & have a very Merry Christmas!

The huge gingerbread house in the Royal Park Hotel! We visit it every year!
The Royal Park Hotel is where we spent our first night of marriage. :) A very special place!
