Change of plans

Hello everyone,

Once again we have been very busy. We have some announcements to make to all of you. We have decided on some changes due to many reasons. Let's start with the big change. After prayer and advice, we have decided to move the wedding date up. We were thinking about it and thought that it would be a lot more peaceful and less stressful to spend our three months in Venezuela as a married couple and not as two engaged people running around trying to plan a wedding. We also wanted to use the time to spend with Cy's family and her church and just have a time as a couple in her culture. Anyways, we are now getting married on the 6th of December 2006. With that decision made there are other changes. For example, Cy will be leaving this next week to go and make the plans for the wedding. Another one is that I will be spending the next 5-6 weeks without her by my side. Yeah, two things that are going to be rather tough. But in the end, we know that God is guiding us to do this. And if it's God's will, then it has to be the best thing for us.

So Cy is leaving on the next possible flight out of here, which looks to be Tuesday. Please pray that she can get that flight. She has applied for the visa to come to Canada and so we are waiting for that answer on Monday. Please pray that she will be able to get that visa. Cy will be there in Venezuela until I get there. We are planning on spending our time there until about March 2007 spending time with family and raising financial support before our big journey to Thailand where we will be investing our lives. Who knows when we will be able go back to Venezuela?

Anyways, so these are the new plans. We're both excited and sad, excited that Cy gets to go back to her home country after 4 years without seeing her mother and sad because we will be separated for 5 weeks. Please pray along these lines for us. Also, I want to finish this school well and receive the greatest amount of revelation possible.

Thanks for supporting us with your prayers and encouragement. We need it as well. We will keep you all up-to-date with our crazy lives. We love you all!
