As we prepare to move back to the orphanage on December 8th, we realize there will be much more changing than our address. Last Friday, the 14 missionaries at Entre Rios met for dinner and prayer. After each person shared, we realized that in the next two months, seven will be leaving CLM and another will be taking maternity leave in May. Bethany and Juan are expecting their first baby in June. Rosana is getting married. Rogerio and Vivien are taking on full-time positions at the church in the colony. Vagner and Jacqueline are moving back to Bahia. Edit is returning to Hungary. After receiving the last four children last week, there are 36 children...and soon only 7 missionaries to care for all of their needs!
We are reminded of the story of Gideon's army of 32,000 who were to wage war on the Midianites. God chose to get the job done with only 300. God isn't concerned about the ratios...He will supply all our need, according to His riches. We can be confident of victory when we trust in Him and not ourselves. Thank you for your continued prayers for us, as well as the other missionaries and children.

We're praying that He will send more workers - the harvest is ripe at CLM! I think that Maggie and Mocha are ready to jump in :^) and fill the gaps.
