I’m so glad you asked. We have been cleared to answer questions publically now that we are job matched so without further hindrance I give you the answer to the questions we have been dying to answer:
We are in the application process with the IMB, and have been matched to an assignment for church planting in Maxixe (pronounced “Mah-sheesh”, naturally), Mozambique.
The job is a security level 1, meaning that there are no unusual security concerns, and we may communicate openly about our place of service. (We’ll talk more about Maxixe job specifics in another post.)
The IMB Trustees must approve our candidacy, and a trustee approval committee will vote on our application on January 19 (on my birthday! Ha!). If approved, Matt and I will be appointed as missionaries to Mozambique on February 23 in Richmond, VA. After appointment, we will go for 8 weeks to Richmond for orientation (April 11 – June 11), and then will proceed to Mozambique from Richmond around June 25.
So the news is out and we covet your prayers.
We. Are. Ecstatic!!!
