2 Months since we have been in New Zealand....

Well hello from down under,
It has been over 2 months since we have arrived in New Zealand, and it has been great.
Oh and to let you all know we didn’t feel the earth Quake here, thank you for the prayer and concerns. Love you all.
To fill you in on us, we are settled. We live in a 3-bed room studio/apartment. The other two bedrooms are where the boys from the Bible College are staying. The girls are staying in a house just up the hill from us. We got a car or rather a van. Thank you for all who were praying for that. It is great Tecla is now a soccer mom☺ It is a Mazda MPV; it is a great little people mover. We will use it to shuttle students around, and to pick any of our friends up from the airport, hint hint.
As far as the Bible College is going… The students have arrived. First classes were on the 30th of Aug. So every one has survived the first month of Bible College. To fill some of you in on what we are doing specifically. Tecla is in charge of servant hood area (m199, which is a class that has the students work around the college to keep the cost of living down for them), kitchen (she helps prepare the meals, and organizes who is fixing other meals, and make the runs to the store for all the food), and various other things. I am teaching Community Outreach (it is a class that gives the students practical tools to share the gospel with the people around them, then it gives them the opportunity to do that. They go street witnessing or to people’s houses, to do a little yard work, weather permitting), I am also the overseer for Friday morning guest speakers and prayer (That is a class that we get people from around New Zealand or even the world, to come in and share what the Lord is doing in their ministry. It is to give the students an idea of what ministry is like else where in the world)
Tecla and my self also work for the Ranch that the College is facilitated at. We put in 40 hours a week, 20 for Tecla, and 20 for me.
On Tecla’s face book page there are more pics, of the things out here. So please take a look. Please feel free to email us with questions, or even just shoot us a quick hey what’s up. We love you all and miss you so much.
Love you all and thank you for your support and prayers.
