Chris writes - I have now been back in Kosova for six weeks, Lorraine has been here just over a week. Setting up home is never easy, so many things to do and to fix...so setting up home in a foreign country where you only speak a little of the language and in winter we knew was going to be an uphill struggle. Have now been in the house 3 weeks.....last week we were in despair...fridge, washing machine not working and the guy coming to fix had let us down twice...in addition a mountain of other jobs, including getting a bed as we have been sleeping in the lounge on the sofabed and sorting out our new woodstove.

Today has been a good day so far and its only lunchtime!!.......we purchased a bed this morning....hopefully delivered later, guy came to fix the fridge and washing machine, hopefully sorting the woodstove later and maybe a few other little jobs.....we could be on a roll here!!

Will let you know how we get on!!

Thanks for your prayers...we need em!!

Lorraine writes- Its been a while since I have written an entry on the blog....After 5 months in the UK I rejoined Chris in Kosova last Friday. Time apart always makes the heart grow fonder and I can say that about missing Chris and Kosova. I had such a wonderful welcome from all our Kosova friends. During the 5 months I spent in the UK so much had happened.

Having experienced some good and not so good things I feel stronger now than ever before. After Chris returned to Kosova (four weeks ago) we have had to deal with being de-frauded, having our C.R.B applications forms with personal information stolen and a car crash.

The thought that someone could use this information illegally and be walking around identifing themselves as us and having access to our account creates such such fear. But it caused me to cling closer to God and trust Him more. All the way along our journey God has demonstrated His love and provision for us in so many ways.

I am excited for what is in store for us in Kosova.....the next stage is now beginning.......
