[What's What With the Walkers] It's Here!!

That's right...the long awaited for visa for Titus was wired to the PNG Embassy Friday morning!!  And some people say prayer doesn't change things...they don't know our God!!  Thank you to all of you who were praying for his visa.  It may not have been there for Monday when we wanted, but God's timing is perfect, and He's never late!
 
So, what's next?  We are researching plane tickets right now, and waiting to hear back from a couple travel agents to see if they can beat the prices we found online for ourselves.  From the research we've done though, it doesn't appear that the holiday rush (and prices) drops until Jan. 11, so it looks like we'll be around here for a couple more weeks.  But who can complain about another Christmas with the family? :)  We will let everyone know of our official plans once the tickets have been purchased.
 
There are times in our lives where we can look back and clearly see the hand of God leading us.  Our time home has been, beyond a doubt, one of those times for us.  Looking back, everything...all the many details, relationships, and opportunities has had a divine purpose.  We stand amazed in the details that we can see, and think in wonder about the details that we can't yet see.  God is good, and now, more than ever, we feel the extreme privilege that is ours in being your hands and feet in Papua New Guinea, and most particularly in Mibu.  We are SO excited to see what God has in store for us in the months and years to come.  Thank you ever so much for standing with us...encouraging us and loving and praying for us.  You truly are the backbone of our ministry.
 
And if anyone is wondering what the kids think of this....I was doing school with Jael when we got the phone call.  She figured out what was happening (my huge smile and high squeaky "really?" may have given her some indication), and before I could get off the phone, she was running up and down the hallway here in excitement!  We are so blessed with children who are as excited about returning to our ministry as we are!
 
Enjoy the holidays!!  Christ came for a reason, and that reason is worth celebrating!!
Love to all,
Chris, Angie, Jael, Baruch and Titus Walker
