On the plane!
We have been back in Kinshasa for about a week and a half, and in 3 days Ruth will be 2 months old!! Wow! Things are always changing and we are always learning new things, its quite tiring but worth it.
Our flight to Congo went really well, Ruth slept for most of the time. I think the sound of the airplane engines put her right to sleep. Thank you so much to everyone that gave us gifts for Ruth and for us, we feel like that so far we have everything that we need to provide and take care of our daughter! 
Whaaaaaaa!















Its been so awesome since I have been back in Congo to be able to go around with a  new baby because family and children are held in such high regard in this culture. Going to church and other places I have had many people that never talked to me before or acknowledged me talk to me and were excited I had a baby!

I realized that before I had a child I was an anomaly to them, I just didnt make sense... I was married but I didnt have any children... WhATTT!?  I know crazy right! 
Just in case you were wondering... Serenity is doing just fine

But now I have a child I am 'Momma Jocelyn' and I get much more respect then I did before as a young women without a child! 
But anyways, the first week has been good, we hung out and unpacked for the first little while and now Nick is back off to work and today on a flight to Vanga. We are doing a big internet switchover where we are moving our VSAT to a different location so we will be without internet for a little while; and Nick being the new IT guy will be quite busy over the next little while getting that all set up! 
Baking a cake :-)

 










Hopefully after that he will be able rest for a little while as we settle back into 'normal' life here in Kinshasa. 
I would write more but I have a baby crying wanting to eat, so looks like I had better get going! 

Miss and Love you all!!

Support our Ministry with MAF

Managers / Pilots / Mechanics / Administrators are needed on the field. As a pilot and advisor, Nick plays a very important role of flying and advising on operations in the WDRC program. DRC is one of the most difficult places to do 'business' there are as many or more difficulties going into the office then flying over the jungles of Congo. However difficult his job is a necessary one; there are numerous isolated places and people in Congo that need MAF to be here.

The only way that we can continue to do the work that Gad has laid before us in Congo is by your generous donations.

We are aware that some partner with us for only a season which leaves an opportunity for others to come along side our ministry; because of that we are always looking those who will partner with us in our ministry with MAF to be able to keep our fundraising goal at 100%. Would you prayerfully ask God if He is prompting you to be a part of our ministry?
