We have expressed already how thrilled we are that our friends Bo and Leigh are going to be in Germany when we are in Switzerland!! I can’t wait to be able to see my best friend on a regular basis! Bo and Leigh are serving at Black Forest Academy in Germany. They are both teaching and doing a thousand extra things on the side to invest in the lives of students and other missionaries. Their transition to Germany has been tough, leaving friends and family and jumping in to a whole new world, 2 really, one at the school and one in Germany! That is a lot. I can say that because we too have been there done that with the leave and cleave and enjoy your new life abroad.

Bo and Leigh raised their own funding but never could have anticipated that getting internet installed in their apt would cost them over $1000. They need to have some kind of hardware installed to make it possible. We can all imagine what life would be like without internet. They have spent the last MONTHS trying to get it all sorted out.

They have no idea I am writing this but…If you aren’t currently supporting missionaries and you want to participate in an unusual “missions project”  by donating to their internet fund please let us know and we will send you info.  Seriously consider it. How exciting would that be for them to have the ability to connect with family and friends through skype etc once they are able to access the world wide web!!!  It would be an amazing blessing that we all take for granted!!! Let’s surprise them!

(All of us at Bo and Leigh’s wedding. I take liberty to give the disclaimer that I was 6 months pregnant and bridemaid’s dresses are not designed for people that are 6 months pregnant! Just look at the bride and groom!!)
