"Final"-ly

Polly and I received an incredibly exciting email today. It contained the two words we had been waiting for: final approval. That's right, Polly and I have finally received our final approval as Assemblies of God World Missions (AGWM) Missionary Associates. What does this mean? We're official. And since we're official, we can officially begin the process of raising the funds we will need to get to Costa Rica (Our AGWM Acct # is 2713097 for those of you who had already been asking).

This news couldn't have come at a more opportune time for us as we will be having a table at Catalyst Boston at Christ the Rock Church in Dorchester, MA tomorrow. While praying that God would help us trust His will and timing, we were also hoping and praying that this approval would come in time for this event. Based on the information we received this past Wednesday, we were not too confident that this would be the case. We simply prayed that God would give us favor and either bless us with the approval or with the patience we needed to wait. We had no doubt that God was going to answer our prayers either way because God is good! Please pray that God will give us favoring in networking and connecting with the right people at the event tomorrow.

Speaking of the event tomorrow, we've been working pretty much all out for nearly the past two weeks to get our table display and promotional materials ready, which is why we haven't blogged in a while and also why this blog is short and coming so late in the day. We will share more detail about our approval and what we've been busy working on for the last couple weeks soon. We will also share some more detail on some potential ministry opening up for us in Costa Rica in the near future.

Below is the logo that we have created for ourselves. It's the outline of Costa Rica and features the colors and design of its flag:
