comprometida

This week's photo was easy. :) Fausto and I got engaged on Friday night down at Ocean City, New Jersey on the 18th St beach. It was wonderful. We got to spend the whole day Saturday celebrating and hanging out on the beach and the boardwalk. It was really nice to spend time just the two of us and then get to celebrate with family on Sunday! The "Best wishes!" and "Congratulations" have been pouring in and we're both really excited for this next step.

A lot of people have asked me, after congratulating me, if I'm still going to Honduras since I'm engaged now.... the answer is a resounding YES! Fausto and I are hoping to get married within the next year and a half, at which point he will come down to Honduras and we'll spend our first married years there.

That's the plan now. We were just talking about James 4:13-15

¹³ Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.” ¹⁴ Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. ¹⁵ Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.”

We're working on logistics of the imminent long-distance relationship. Our hope and plan is to be together soon in Honduras and we ask for your prayers and God's blessing on these plans. We both feel called to serve the people in Honduras and we pray that God would grant us these desires of our hearts.
