We are excited to let you know that we are on our way back to Mexico! We plan to cross the border early tomorrow (Friday) morning. Our home assignment has been full of so many blessings. It has been wonderful visiting with many of you over the course of the year and share firsthand what the Lord has been doing in Mexico. We are so grateful for the wonderful support team God has provided for us. Your prayers and encouragement keep us going! God is faithful and has provided all we were lacking for our return to ministry in the Baja. We praise Him especially for our newest partners, Leona Valley Community Church. They provided a home church for us during the second half of our home assignment and have been His hands and feet to our family.
As we return to Baja, here are some specific prayer requests:
· Smooth and safe travel down the peninsula to La Paz. Lord willing, we should arrive there on Sunday or Monday.
· Dealing with the transition well. We all made some wonderful friends during home assignment and miss them yet are excited to be returning to our adopted home in Mexico. Living in close proximity to so much family the past several months has also been a HUGE blessing that we are now missing as well. Emotions for everyone are going up and down quite a bit. Just tonight, while getting the kids into bed, Luke (3 yrs.) kept saying over and over, “Me want go home, me want go home.” Even in his little heart and mind, he senses the changes coming and wants the security of the home he knows at the camp. Pray that we will have wisdom and sensitivity to help each of our children through the transition well.
· Housing. We will be in a temporary housing arrangement and hope to find a house for rent as quickly as possible. Please pray with us that we find a great fit for our family and ministry needs. Ideally, we would love to find something and get moved in before the first of September so we can avoid the monthly rental fee on the storage unit where our furniture has been while on home assignment.
· Open doors for ministry. God continues to confirm to us that La Paz is the place He has for us right now. We are excited for the many opportunities He will provide for ministry.
Thank you again for your partnership with our family.
By His Grace,
The Eager Family
