Back in Oz

Well, Ava, Nate and I (Amy) are, that is! We returned to Sydney on October 18th. Jason and Grace are still in California with Jason's parents. I needed to get back to get the kids back in school and attend to church and ministry responsibilities. Jason remained for a couple of extra weeks in CA to meet with our ministry partners and take care of some business.

They are returning to Sydney on Wednesday and we are so excited! Jase has had a great time in California, catching up with friends and partners and spending time with family, but as the weeks have gone by we are all really missing each other!

Here in Sydney, the kids are back into the school routine--took several days to get over jet lag! I've been preaching at church on Sundays, and lead worship last Sunday. We've wrapped up our series on "A Life Worth Living", which focused on loving God, obeying Him, and investing in relationships. Good stuff! With the kids in school and Grace with her daddy, this is the first time since Ava was born that I've had my days to myself! It has felt very strange not to have a 3 ft tall companion everywhere I go!

I've been very busy meeting up with church members during the week, taking care of some admin responsibilities, and doing household stuff. Oh--and hitting the gym! Time to work off all that yummy food I ate while we were in the US!

I had a girls' night out with some of our women leaders--that was a lot of fun! We feel very blessed to work alongside some stellar people. 

More from us soon! Hope everyone is doing great.
