We've had quite a battle trying to launch to Africa. I'll go into more
detail later, but after four months, we still do not have sufficient
funds travel to Africa. It seems the Lord has kept us here. We were
frustrated and beginning to wonder if our plans were not in accordance
with the Lord's will, or if we had somehow made it so that he could
not bless our plans. It has been hard working, waiting and wondering.
We decided last year that, if at all possible, we would be back for
Min's brother's wedding in September. However, time is short now, and
even if we had the funds, it would be hard to justify spending them,
just to return in 5 1/2 months. We really want to begin working,
however, and an opportunity has arisen. David Gates suggested that we
go to South America until September. It is much cheaper to fly there,
and he even said he can give us a ride back, making it still cheaper.
Our upcoming tax refund and the sale of our cars ought to get us
there. Please pray for us. We are very excited!
God Bless,
Scott Sterling
