Finally the visa!!

And it came, feels like Christmas... something that we were waiting for a long time... The Visa was issued!!! Sure all the wait wasn't easy and the time wasn't given to us on the visa but, God is faithful!!!
Now we can travel East to start the Ice "CREEM" shop and see how we are going to do all of this!
Yesterday we had a great time with the basketball teams. The girls won the first game 20 to 14. The guys, unfortunately got "killed" by the giants in the other team... 54 to 11. ...ouch... But they run and run and run!!! It was a much better presentation than last week, even with a loss.

We are getting ready to got to the States for a little time away from here. on December 7th we are going to Florida for a month. Jessica's parents are planning to come and visit for a week. Than with some supporters/mentors we are going to Washington DC and North Carolina. Than we will be back for another week in Florida. The school here resumes on Jan 11.

The school schedulle is filling up out time quite a bit. With the basketball season, we have practices 2 times a week and games, sometimes 3 games/week. Arabic classes on Mon and Wed, and team meeting on Mon late afternoon. Another meeting on Thurs about the people group. We praise the Lord for the car and health. Normally we get home around 6pm and go to bed at 8pm... long days but rewarding!!
We are so glad to be doing what we are doing now. Bring the Xtian influence to the kids lifes is great and we always try to tell them bible histories... David and Goliath, Jonah, 40 years in the desert and so on. so much fun!!!
Jessica is going to a womans retreat this weekend and we as "single for the weekend" guys are planning to play some Risk (one American, one German, one British and the Brazilian). May be we will go fishing on the Nile too, this are just plans.

Pictures. The women around here and the Market close to our home.
