June 22ish leave for Texas for 5 months training. (See here for course information) This includes 3 months classroom training and 8 weeks outreach somewhere in the world. Outreach will be determined during the training phase.
November 15-? visit the base in Creel, MX and get to know the people on base there better. We have been in contact with them on Facebook and through email. During this time we will be particularly listening for God's confirmation as to whether this is where He is leading us or not.
November ? - January ? gather support for permanently moving to Creel. We hope to leave at the beginning of next year. This of course will be determined on exactly how much we need to raise and how quickly we can raise the funds. We will get a better notion of what exactly we need to raise when we visit down there.
We really covet your prayers during this time. We have a lot of things to take care of and not a lot of time to do it. We are still waiting on the other couple to sell their house. They have had it listed for a couple of months now. Please pray that their house will sell soon so that they can purchase our house. We are still in the process of cleaning out or house and disposing all of the stuff we have accumulated during our time in this house. It's amazing how much junk you can gather in one house. Pray for us to stay on track and to remain diligent in our work.
If you have been blessed and feel God calling you to support us financially, you can do so through our church. Checks can be made out to Friendship Chapel, but DO NOT write our name on the check anywhere. Please insert a separate note saying that this is for Dan and Robin. They can be sent to our church at:

The cost of the CDTS is $6990 for us as a couple, plus $1755 for our children to be there as well. This covers all of the training and room and board. The outreach phase will cost an additional $2000-$2500 for each of us, depending on where we go. We understand that this seems like a lot, but we feel that the training and experience we will receive will help us tremendously in our future.
We thank you in advance for all your support either in prayer or financially.
"Mission has two categories: those who go down into the well and those who hold the rope. Either way it will cost you, and either way you will have scars." - Paul Washer, director of the HeartCry Missionary Society
Would you be willing to hold our rope while we venture down into the well?
Going forward in God's grace and guidance.
