We've made it to Palmer Lake,CO where our next five weeks will be filled with language learning and cultural training at Mission Training International (MTI). Our drive out West was filled with adventure. After spending time with family, we headed to Boise, ID to visit with our church's newest church plant. Along the way we stopped to enjoy some of God's beautiful creations, Grand Tetons and Yellowstone National Parks. Both places offered some nice downtime and relaxation as we both enjoy spending time outdoors. After a few days on the road, we made it Boise. What an encouraging time! God is moving in the North End Collective Church in big ways. It was nice to see old friends and meet new ones. I hope we were as encouraging to them as they were to us. On our last night in Boise, the leadership team prayed over us; it was awesome. In a way we can relate to the church plant, picking up and moving to go share our faith with others in a new city across the country or across the world. Thank you Boise church plant! What a great few days!
We're at MTI now. We just went through orientation this evening and classes start tomorrow. It is nice to meet people that are going to serve all over the world, knowing that God has a plan greater than we can even imagine. We're looking forward to the next five weeks.

praying for you guys! you will love MTI! even if its hard to invest in new relationships while still going through the grieving process of saying goodbye to friends and family, I'd encourage you to put it all out there and allow the Spirit to bind your hearts together with your fellow SPLICERS and PILAT participants
