We are official!


After 14 months of paperwork, interviews, more paperwork, more interviews, under the light bulb probing, and lots of prayer we have been officially appointed by the International Mission Board. Our lives will be very hectic getting ready for the next 3 1/2 months. Our timeline is as follows: travel to MD June 9th - stay there until June 19th - leave for NY for a training staying there until July 4th - from there travel to the beach for a week - travel back to NC and then leave for orientation in Richmond August 5th through October 2nd - leave for Bamako, Mali on October 4th.

There will be a service celebrating completion of orientation on September 30th in Richmond, VA. Since this is a Tuesday, we know this makes it difficult, but if available, we would love to see you there. We will continue to keep you posted on all of our goings on! We still have not sold our house, but we ask for your continued prayers. We appreciate all of you so much!

I saw your prayer cards on Facebook and had to check out your blog. You have the same template as us! Even though we're going to a different FPO, it's nice that we can still keep in touch online! (Feel free to check out our blog at www.rossfamily4russia.blogspot.com.)
