2 months

It is official and the plane tickets have finally been purchased, we are leaving in 2 months for our furlough (break from Lesotho and chance to visit family and friends). We are beginning to get some plans together. We will leave Lesotho around the 11th of June to do some fundraising for Beautiful Gate in England, Netherlands (as well as visiting some of our friends who have been  adopted) and Belgium and then we will fly into Michigan around the 26th of June. We are planning to spend about a week "off the map" at Bryan's parents house visiting with family and then we will be ready to come out of hiding and share our stories :) In August we will be heading to Colorado, Canada and California to do some fundraising and visit some of our little buddies who have been adopted. I look forward to seeing some of my special friends (most probably will not remember me at all) who I used to play with and have fun with during play group here at Beautiful Gate. Now they are living such a wonderful life with their new families and it will be great to see a glimpse of that new awesome life!
I do not know how much time we will have available with the updates we will do at our supporting churches and friends and family who have been supporting us, but if you are interested in putting together a fundraiser while we are home or want us/and or our North American Ambassador, Christina Terpstra, to come share at your church, please email us very soon so we can see if something could be worked out. We will be home (Michigan) till the end of November and then we will be heading back to Lesotho for the rest of our commitment. Bryan's work email is opsdirector@beautifulgatelesotho.org. or our personal email is bageurink@hotmail.com.
