We'll be in the Chicagoland area one LAST time! Why? Because we have our Honduran residency now! We're super excited because this means we no longer have to leave Honduras every 90 days. Although it's been great seeing family, friends and supporting churches, it's expensive and quiet disruptive to our ministry here to leave every 3 months.
Since there is a Central American Union creating open borders we were required to travel further than just a neighboring country. Fortunately for us, Chicago is one of the cheapest airline tickets (about $400) one can buy from San Pedro Sula, Honduras - an airport about 4 hours from us.
We're very grateful we received our residency paperwork in record time! In the past, it has taken missionaries here several years and lots of money to obtain residency. Through trial and error, a fantastic Christian lawyer and lots of prayer, we were able to navigate this confusing and difficult task in about 4 months!
All that to say, if ever you were thinking you wanted to see us without having to travel all the way to Honduras, now is the time! We'll be in the Chicago area June 6-16th.
Also, if you're interested in getting involved in our work here in Honduras either in a short-term work trip or financially, we have a lot of new opportunities of our expanding ministry here. More details to come of course.
