Passports lost . . . finally returned!

Hello Family and Friends,
Rollercoaster might be a good word to use to describe the situation we have just experienced. But we have asked many of you to please pray with us, and the Lord has come through again! Three weeks ago we sent our passports (certified) to the Embassy in Chad, but alas, to an old address. (I am always nervous putting important documents in the mail.) They arrived a couple of days later at some point where they were scanned as undeliverable. Our local postmaster called the destination post office who could not trace anything - we were hovering between trusting that God knew exactly where our passports were and despairing ever seeing them again and having to replace them. Yesterday we spoke to our mail carrier, gave them the tracking number on the missing envelope and planned to wait a day to see if they could possibly trace it. This morning we received a call from our mail carrier - the missing envelope containing our passports was delivered to the post office this morning!! Praise the Lord for His goodness, for His compassion on us!! We drove to the post office and signed for the envelope, hardly believing we had them in our hands. Tomorrow we start the process again, this time with a correct address and a more secure way of sending them. So we again will be praying that they get to their destination and are returned soon with the required visas. We'll keep you posted . . . sing His praises, thank you Lord!
