Over two months

This semester has been crazy. Didn't realize it had been that long since I last posted. Gonna keep this one brief.

Praises:

1. Our Friday nights have been fun with a few students coming out each week to eat and play games and fellowship. I have a new page set up with Facebook called Huen Whertvine, feel free to check it out. Also, all the instagram pics we post are hashtagged #huenwhertvine so if you search that, you can see the pictures we have been taking.
Side note: Huen is northern Thai for house or home, so it means the Whertvine house.

2. This semester is almost over. It has been rough getting back into the swing of things. but I made it through, and have passed my probation period into being a full time professor. Next week I'll be giving my first two finals. Then it's over.

3. We are going to America for two weeks to see family. It will be my first time home in two and a half years, so it will be good to see everyone. It will also be Anne's first time in America... or really outside Thailand for that matter. Please be praying for our flight and travels.

4. Anne got a ten year visa, which is unheard of for a first time applicant. Especially one with no previous travel outside of Thailand recorded in their passport. So praise the Lord for that, and thanks to the official who was interviewing her.

5. We will be having two receptions for our wedding.
Sunday, October 20th
The Settle Inn, Linn Missouri
In the afternoon. Will post more specific times when I know them.

Saturday, October 26th
TBD, Ardmore area, Oklahoma
TBA when I know.

If you are free and able to come, please do. This trip is short, but I'd still like to be able to see as many people as possible while we are there. Never know when if we'll get another opportunity (but praying we will)

Those are the main things, just praises this month. I may also be speaking at a church in MO, and at FBC Ardmore the 20th and 27th. Still firming up the details on those two as well.

Thank you all, hopefully see many of you all in about 3-5 weeks.
