I have had several people ask me what "Op Zending" means. "Op" means "on" and "Zending"
means "Mission" I can see that I will have to teach all of you some Dutch before our 23 months are up. We had the pleasure of going to the Church Office Bldg. today. We parked 10 miles away and tripped over a ton of orange cones and flags before we could make it to the building. We had to dodge two female homeless people at the gate of Temple square (both ways) For some reason they looked better fed and dressed than we did. (Go figure, where do they touch up their makeup, in some car's side mirror?) They must also have showers somewhere under the viaduct. Well more power to them, probably beats minimum wage.
Good News.......Our VISA applications are officially "IN" Hope the Belgium government will see fit to let us enter. The sweet little very pregnant girl at the Missionary Travel Dept. told us it usually takes a little over a month. If all goes well, we should leave on time. Let's get this show on the road.

I am fine if you stay here for a few more years. I am not ready to push you out of the country....yet. :)
Iris - I'm so glad I found your blog (via Michelle's blog via Melinda's blog). I'm excited to follow your mission adventures. You are a terrific (and hilarious) writer!
