They Arrived!

The welcomers had to go to the airport a day later than originally planned, but the Truongs finally made it to Taiwan.  Wednesday afternoon, August 1 is the day they began their new lives in Taiwan.

The Vietnamese church (Agape Alliance) prepared a meal to welcome the Truong family, and a few members even requested the day off work to be there. The Truongs stayed at the church through the weekend.  They plan to move into their new home on Monday, August 6.

We praise the Lord for working out all the details.  We are especially thankful that they were able to arrive prior to the first day of school for Melody.

Lorne and Kathy-Lu will spend most of this week helping them get needed household items.  And of course, they will need to do the necessary paperwork at government offices.

Please pray for stamina and wisdom as we enter this busy week.
