Good News...

Today, Tom recieved the email he's been waiting for for a very long time. It was an email saying that he has been asked to interview for the Doctoral program of a local University for Physical Therapy. We are so excited and praying that the Lord would make His will evident to us. Tom's interview is on February 17th at 8:45am. If he does get accepted, we will be moving over there sometime before school begins in the fall.

God's perfect plan

Tom and i have been married now for 3 years. I'm so thankful that God directed us together. For those who don't know, our story is quite amazing.
I was over in Russia serving on the mission field with my parents after graduating from college. It was during this time that my parent's mission board had a meeting in Irkutsk, Russia for all Russian missionaries with our mission board. Little did i know that Tom was planning to come over to Russia with his family to visit his sister and her family(who are with the same mission board) in Irkutsk, Russia. His dad was also to be a speaker at our conference. What is so crazy is that i had met Tom's dad while i was up at college and Tom had met my parents and my brother while they were traveling around to churches. But Tom and i had never met. Obviously, it just wasn't the Lord's timing.
So, this is how tom and I met. We hit it off right away and it didn't take long before we were engaged and married.....about a year to be exact.
We're currently waiting to hear from graduate school for tom.
