On October 10th we welcomed the third U.S. STINT team to come to Wellington, New Zealand! Our new team members are John, Nate, Dan, and Lindsay (all indicated with a start* above). After their long plane flights, they were happy to hit the ground! The photo above was snapped at a restaurant in the sleepy little town of Martinborough during a combined team retreat. We are happy to report that Steve (our token “Kiwi”), Kara, and Susanne, after raising additional financial support, will be returning to the mission with us in 2009. Justin and Lacey (far right) got engaged while on STINT together here in New Zealand and will be getting married in Chicago this January. They’ve talked about returning to Wellington after their wedding to pursue jobs and further studies. We are excited about their potential return, as we’ve really valued their friendship and heart for people. We thank the Lord for continuing to provide us awesome teammates to labor alongside in the mission field. We look forward to 2009!
