The Ferenji Funderburks

Nomads

Posted in Posts from the U.S., Pre-ferenji by michaelfunderburk on August 3, 2009

It’s official. The fam and I have moved out of the apartment and have begun our life as nomads through the month of August. Our leave date is August 27th. So where will we be sojourning this month, you ask? We’ll spend some time in Arkansas, Austin, and then with both sets of parents.

We are glad to be out of the apartment.  We unloaded lots of stuff at The Salvation Army and Goodwill drop offs and trashed things that should have been trashed a long time ago.

Right now we’re with Jana’s parents and will soon leave for Arkansas to stay at a retreat center with some good friends.

Enough of this prosaic account.  We’ll get back to you all soon.

    We had so much fun with you last week. I mean, what’s not to love about fried catfish, fried hushpuppies and fried pies…oh and spilled drinks, screaming babies and poopie diapers.

    Praying for you and loving you all the way to ET and back.

    We’re looking forward to reading all your adventures. But I count on you making a prettier blog –I’d like to see it full of your woodcuts and photography– someday when you have free time again.

    We are so excited to be able to follow your journey of moving to Ethiopia. What a wonderful opportunity! We are praying for you! We are adopting a sibling group from ET and are looking forward to seeing what God has planned for our family!

    I have been following (stalking) your blog for some time and I keep checking back since I have you on my blog roll. Your story of adopting Ruthie inspired us in our early days of the adoption process. We’ll soon be on the waiting list for young siblings. So glad to know that I can keep following your journey in Ethiopia. You are in my prayers for safe and smooth travels. What an adventure you’re embarking on!

    Godspeed. Please take a picture of the ark of the covenant for us. Just don’t open it though, Indie.
