The past year has been filled with hard work, new experiences, cultural adjustments, unexpected challenges, and many blessings. Our work here has been going well, and we have met some truly amazing people. We are incredibly grateful for the friendships that have developed, the students who have entered our lives, the conversations we have been able to have, and the many opportunities God has given us to serve.
