Good morning from New Zealand!! And a GREAT morning it is!

We want to update you that the visa's for Mario and Stanley have been passed and we are booking their flights to come to New Zealand for the first week of March!! PRAISE THE LORD!! We can't express how excited we are and how amazing our God is - He has done miracles with these boys and with the whole ID/birth certificate/passport/visa process - and they are coming!

They will be joining us now one month late into the school term but as Capernwray is a school where they have a new teacher each week and are not graded heavily on academics, the boys will be fine school wise to join at this point. Everyone has been praying here at the school for their visa's and excitement is lingering in the air.

One more amazing thing is that there is an African woman living here on campus. She isn't involved with the school but is a Christian widow who needed a place to stay so lives in a unit here and works at a seniors home in town. She is an amazing Godly woman and it may be very helpful having her here with their culture shock :) Praise the Lord!

Jesse is also speaking this coming week so pray for wisdom and that the Holy Spirit will move through him and touch the students' lives. His topic is: "Being Imitators of God"

Please also pray with us for:

- preparation for the boys as they pack and prepare this week
- cheap flights
- culture shock
- preparation for us here at Capernwray - might be a bit of culture shock for the people here as well

Thank-you so much for your prayers and thank-you already to those who are giving towards the boys' flights.
Excited in Christ,
Jesse and Jen
