Resting in the midst of impatience...















Hello Everyone,

This past week as been full of joy and also frustration. As far as our return to Budrio, we couldn't have asked for a better welcoming from our church and loved ones. At the same time, we are having to jump through a lot of hoops in order to get our visa's in order as well as Carli's maternity leave.

We are currently staying in a temporary apartment for the next month as we are looking for a long term place where we can settle in. We have an appointment set for Monday afternoon with a real estate agency here to look at three apartments. Please pray that the Lord gives us peace with the upcoming decisions that we need to make as well a smooth transition with the baby's arrival 5 weeks out. We know the Lord's plan is the best plan so we want to make sure that we don't rush into anything in these next few weeks.

On a positive note, We both went to Sant Orsala Hospital in Bologna for Carli's checkup and everything is going great with the baby. We have to go back next week for another screening and then  a week after that. Once those appointments are completed we are on standby for going into labor.
The midwives and doctor were very nice and explained how the process works here in Italy. We both felt at home with them and are thankful that when our baby is born our environment should be just fine.

We love you all and ask that you continue praying for us.

Justin and Carli
