We hold our plans with open hands. ...and then plans changed.
Cases of the coronavirus are multiplying rapidly and the Italian government has instituted a country-wide lockdown. Our family had planned to leave for the USA on March 12. Despite planning six months in advance to head to the US to see family and share about God's work in Italy, He has determined that we should remain. The next three weeks we are not able to gather as a church. Instead, we will be meeting virtually. Last Sunday I handed responsibilities over to memebers of Rome International Church. Now, we will be present to see how it goes! Alaina read Isaiah 6:8 where God asks, "Who will go for me?" Isaiah reminded us of our answer years ago, "Here we are, send us". pray for us as we remain here in Itlay to minister to our neighbors and love his church. To God be the glory both now and forever.
