July!!! Wow!!!

I wouldn't have guesses that July flew by so quickly. We have been going and going especially now that the kids have started home school. We started with CoraBeth this year using the ABEKA DVD program. So far she seems to like it. Garrett is marching on with the North Star Internet program. The first year of it was the worse. Last year he did better. This year he can see us going home in a less than a year so he see a light at the end of the tunnel. Taaalking....about the light at the end of the tunnel. We have started our preparations already on going home for our first Stateside Assignment. So many things to think and pray about. So many questions arising about our future. All first termer's will tell you the first four are the toughest. And all first terms are different. To try to compare is an impossibility, just because every situation is different as well as personalities. The devil has seen fit to attack our family (for us) in most weakest points. We have fought depression, health and spiritual battles like never before. And without a doubt I'm sure all missionaries can testify to all this. So when we say we are excited about coming home for a "descansa" is an understatement.
I've started the process of looking for us a place to stay when we get home. We would like for it to be close to Teresa's moms and the kids school. As well I will be looking at acquiring a vehicle for the time we are home. I will also start booking dates for sharing what God is doing here in Uruguay. I guess that is what excites me the most. Not just sharing but being able to share in English.
I posted a few pictures below of our College summer interns, some of the house bible studies and CoraBeth. Garret is still racing, I just haven't made any pictures as of late. We thank all of you for your prayers. We would appreciate it if you would continue praying for the following.
--The home schooling.
--New believers in Santa Clara
--New believers in La Charqueada
--The new work or restart in Minas. the familia de Walter Saavedra.
--that all people in the Department of Treinta y Tres would come to know the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.
