We arrived back on the Africa Mercy Tuesday at about 4:00 pm.  We were blessed to have excellent travel back to the ship and upon arrival Jacob said, "It is so good to be HOME!"  I can't tell you how glad I was to hear him call the ship HOME.  Over the last year that is what this place has become.  We received a wonderful welcome home present today by way of crew mail.  A family that we have never met sent us a care package.  We are so incredibly blessed by this kindness.  So many time in this last year we have felt that we were being covered in prayer, and it is so amazing to think about the magnitude of God.  A family that has never met us is praying for us.  Amazing!  On a side note, the fact that Old El Paso taco seasoning is in the package is super exciting.

We had to snap a picture with all the treats.

We were so encouraged and blessed by our time in the United States.  We are so thankful for our friends and families on the other side of the ocean.  It was so wonderful to spend time with everyone!  We are excited to be heading to the Republic of Congo.  Please continue to pray for our family as we start this next field service with the Africa Mercy.
