Just a quick post to say that we have arrived in Kosovo and we are busily trying to set up our cute house in central Prishtine (Photos to follow!). It was quite the monster move. We had a truck come to our house in Tirane on Friday to pack up our belongings. We left on Saturday for Suhareka (a town about 30 minutes across the Albania/Kosovo border) where we stayed the night at a motel. On Sunday we had a van & some friends pack the furniture from an apartment rented by volunteers and drove with it from Suhareka to our house in Prishtine. For the past two days we have been cleaning, moving furniture around and trying to get some order in the house before our shipment arrives, hopefully on Thursday. We are praying it is no later than Thursday as Jen’s parents are coming for the weekend to help us unpack! We will move into our house tomorrow. Up until now we have been staying with Imir and Janette as we have no bed at our place! We will sleep on an air mattress tomorrow night and let Jonathan spend his first night in his big boy bed. He has been able to nap in it over the past few days but he is very eager to test it out over night! The kids have done well over the move, and both seem to like their new room. Jonathan seems very comfortable here in Kosovo and is already making friends with the neighborhood kids! We are really blessed to have two great children.
We have been overwhelmed by the love and support we have felt from the believers here. From the moment we arrived in Kosovo we have been surrounded by people helping us, feeding us, helping us to move furniture, giving us a place to stay, looking after our kids so we can work on the house and even cleaning our 2nd hand refrigerator (thank you Adthe!). We have joined a great family here and we are so excited to work alongside a great group of believers.
May the work here be blessed, may friendships & relationships blossom and may the harvest be plentiful!
