Trip Planning Feb 26-Mar 1, 2024

Welcome back! We have been busy busy planning. We kicked off our fundraising for the St. Francis Xavier Mission to Hong Kong two weeks ago and are already 10% to our goal. 

Thank you if you have donated to our mission so far. It is incredibly meaningful to us that you would be moved to support us. 

Holy Spirit Catholic Church has become our home and community, a place where we've gotten involved, and get a lot of joy from giving a helping hand. Thank you again for your support!

This week, my wife and I are booking hotels for our upcoming vacation in Thailand and Vietnam, exploring day trips in each location, reaching out to WorldWide Organized Organic Farms in Italy and Spain to lend a helping hand this summer, finishing up repairs on our home, getting ready to start listing our furniture to sell, and all this while working our day jobs. And that's just what we're doing this week alone.

In Mission News: We have been officially accepted into the St. Francis Xavier Lay Missionary Society. 

Our continuation in the program is contingent on our ability complete their intensive missionary training school. This, we've been told, is the equivalent of the amount of effort needed for a Master's degree. We both have our Master's degrees and are acutely aware of the challenges and the degree of effort needed to complete this type of work. I think because we have the support of each other and will be doing it together  will make a large difference in our motivation and encouragement throughout the schooling.
