Blessings to you all in Jesus Name!

God is good.  Dental drama and complications are finally coming to a close, Praise God!  I flew up to a specialist in Washington state for a week for some serious oral surgery.  Next I came back to California for a few weeks so it could get good and infected.  Finally, I broke down and visited my dentist in Culiacan and she took care of everything in 9 days.  Thank God !

before...and  after

  So now, after several months of rest and recovery, I am at last making preparations to return to France.  I filed my paperwork last Wednesday in Los Angeles, so now we wait.  God willing it will be just a few more days before I get a long stay visa and can purchase a flight.  Maybe I'll be on my way by October 10th.

They asked for 50 pages of documents at the visa agency!

        The plan at the moment is to stay with friends while I secure an apartment in the 8th or 9th district of Marseille.  Thanks to your donations and God's faithfulness, I've got enough support to qualify for a studio, now we just need to find it !

          Dory has been waiting for me all this time in Marseille, although I might miss her more than she does me.  It's too much to cart her back and forth across country and she hates that "boîte" anyway.  

   Dory is waving hello with her tail.

I can't wait to see her and all my missionary buddies and church companions too.  I'm on the group chat for the outreaches and it simply makes me whine seeing all they're doing before I get there.  I'm just so ripe and ready to get out on the street talking to people about how much God loves them!

      Well, I sure appreciate your prayers, it can get dicey out there.  Here's how to pray:

• Visa comes quickly
• Safe travels with no surprise expenses
• Sufficient funds for travel and setting up the apartment
• Papers accepted upon entry into France
• Lodging for the first week
• Miracle apartment secured for Dory and I
• Open doors for ministry to people who really want to hear the gospel
• Health and safety to sustain me for the coming year

Thanks so much, every one of you, for your prayers and financial support. I see your donations as they come in each month and I thank God for you guys all the time.  We share together the reward and blessing of all that God will do this year in ministry in Marseille. 

Until every one has heard,

Sally
