Today is a good day! Want to know why? Well yesterday afternoon, Joel was able to do some calling to the various universities here in Springfield in search of an Indonesian student that might be interested in helping us with our language while we are here. (Remember that the first one we had lined up never came through). Well, just a few hours later we received an email from a gal studying at MSU getting her MBA from Jakarta!!! We were thrilled to hear back so fast and to know that she was very interested in helping us. Not only that, but just now we received another email from her confirming our first "appointment" with her for tomorrow night. Praise God with us that he has provided someone! We will meet her at Panera tomorrow evening to get to know each other and set a "schedule" for meeting each week. An ironic thing about her is that she and her father both went to College of the Ozarks – the college Bethany went to back in the early 90's!! Small world, eh?
So thanks for praying – we are thrilled with God's response!

Soooooooooo glad this worked out! I can picture that Panera too...sigh...how did your meeting go? Glad you'll be able to keep up your vocab and practice some while you're over there. Don't go learning any JKT slang though, before you go to Papua! Thinking of you -
