VISA APPROVAL

We have just received word that our visas for New Zealand have been approved! They are for one year with extension available provided we continue to meet the health standard. This should not be a problem, but we will do the testing once in NZ and ask for the extension.

We thank you for praying with us and expectantly waiting on the Lord.

Now when are you out of here?

Having just heard, we are now going to begin to put things in order. We anticipate leaving within a month.

Once again we thank you for your standing with us and we will keep you informed. For now, pray we keep ourselves before the Lord and serve Him well as we pull all the details together.

OUR PART IS DONE

Well, the paperwork has been submitted. After much labor, time and two trips to Santa Monica, our visa paperwork has been submitted to the NZ consulate. Now it is in their hands. They say they will let us know within a few working days if there will have to be a medical assessment done. If so, everything has to be sent to NZ and a specialist will have to assess everything. That could significantly delay the process. But, if the Lord is pleased to move as we would desire, no further assessing will be necessary and we will have visa's within a few weeks. Pray that this would be so.
