Please pray for our visa applications

Tomorrow (Friday, the 30th) I am going to mail our passports with our visa applications to the South Africa Consulate in Chicago.  The stack of paperwork is thick, my hand hurts, and I pray that all of the spaces I was supposed to fill in are complete.

Please pray that they will arrive safely, and be approved, and returned with no problems.  I have heard one too many horror stories about visas so I am leaving the results in Gods hands.

Rob and I are also leaving tomorrow for Houston, Texas.  (My goal was to have our visa applications complete before we left).  We will be doing some cross cultural training, i.e., we are getting taught how to not offend every person we meet when we get there 😉

On another note, below is a picture of our house with a roof!!  Wahoo.
