Well, we did it. We officially applied to be missionaries with OM International. Now we wait for more information and for them to contact us.
The application date opened August 1st, but with coordinating a wedding for my cousin this weekend, we were too preoccupied to sit down and fill things out.
We are also in the process of pricing our home for sale, estimating what it needs to fix it up for the market (new carpet, painting inside...you know the drill). We have one potential buyer in mind, but until the house is ready, we can't work out a deal.
These first steps outside of your comfort zone are the scariest.
We keep asking God, "Are you sure?" There's insane peace flooding through us right now, so we know He is sure...but it's that walking by faith thing that taking the initial action is massively terrifying. We have an area of the world we are focused on, we know we are going to sell everything and that this is the time to initiate the process.
Pray for and with us during this time. We want to walk in completed obedience in where God is leading our family, and to the land he is leading us.
