Update 5.20.08 Posted By: jason (5/22/2008 3:31:43 PM) Hi Everyone: It has been three weeks since the last update so we thought that we would let you know what is going on. Volcano Chaiten Probably many of you have heard about the Chilean Volcano Chaiten which erupted the beginning of May. We are about 700 kilometer, and down wind from the volcano. This has brought volcanic ash to our area which has caused flight cancelations for days, and many respiratory problems. Nicolas has a scratchy throat and a very dry cough. So the days when there is a lot ash we try to keep the kids inside. Car situation. With winter approaching and with volcanic ash in the air from a volcano that erupted and continues to be active. We have step out in faith and ordered a car. We have to order a car because there are none in stock as they are ordered direct from the factory which usually take about 30 days. We were told that our car may arrive within the first weeks of June. We were told that we could get financing here (interest of 40%), but we cannot get credit because we do not have any credit history here. Of course, they told us that after we ordered the car. So at this point we have $9000 dollars and we are lacking $11000 dollars to pay for the car. Once again, if some wanted to help with the purchase of the car, simply send in your donation to Avant specifying that the money is for Jason & Ita’s car. Keeping busy During this month we have been celebrating the Missions conference, and anniversary of the church. So we have been busy helping with all the activities. Also, we are getting ready to share in Sunday School the concept of working together as a team. Please pray that God will give us the right words to us to motivate the people to work together in ministry. Santa Rosa. Well none of the houses have sold yet so we are still here in Trelew waiting. We are praying for the homes to sell so we can move. Also, if we can get a home in Santa Rosa before our things arrive by boat we can have them delivered directly to Santa Rosa. The kids papers We have started the process of paper work, Nicolas needs some papers from the US and he only has 40 days left to get it all done. So please pray, that we can get everything done and we will not have to travel out of the country and come back in. Thank you for your prayers and support. We will keep you updated. We trust that you will find this update helpful and please pass it one to anyone that is interested. Thank you Jason, Ita, Jonathan, and Nicolas. |
