Big News!

We are happy to announce that Ashish's parents were granted their US Immigration Visas today! This has been a very long process with a number of bumps along the road, but we are very thankful for this huge answer to prayer! Thank you God!!!

The plan at this point is for them to move here sometime around the end of October/early November. We'd really appreciate your prayers for them as they wrap up details of their life in India and prepare for a huge adjustment to a new life here in the US. We will be looking into finding a place for them to live and also trying to find work for them as well.

Thanks for your prayers! We'll be sure to update as we know more! :)

And...also today...a second piece of good news, Ashish's sister Ami was granted her Residency Visa in Argentina! She has been waiting and praying for this for 2 years and it has finally happened! This will give her the freedom to travel to and from the country at will and participate in more of the ministry opportunities with YWAM that she has previously been unable to be a part of. This will also open the door for her to visit Canada! She won't be able to come to the US at this point, but we plan to drive up to Canada in early 2010 to meet her. Priya will finally get to meet her auntie!

We have a lot to celebrate and be thankful for today! :)

That is great and it's encouraging to know that God has blessed their patience during this time. Priya is one lucky little girl having all of her grandparents close by. I'm jealous!!!!
