Grace's Visa

Praise God! Grace's visa was approved! Thank you to everyone that has been praying for Grace's visa. Grace said that she had two interviews while she was there and that both went really well. Now we just need to wait for Grace to get her passport back from the embassy and then I can buy her a ticket to the US. Thanks again for all your prayers.

Badminton

I just got back from Salatiga. I had a good time in Salatiga. I got to be with Grace and also visit some friends. I went to a group meeting there and Grace and I got to play so badminton. We did not get any pictures of me playing but here a couple of Grace playing badminton.

Engagement

Grace and I are now engaged! We just got engaged last Monday. We kind of have an interesting story about how he got in engaged because it happens differently in our cultures. When Grace asked me when we were going to get engaged I was kind of surprised and I told her that she does not get to ask that question. She was just as surprised by my answer because in Indonesian and Filipino culture it is something that you talk about and plan. So we had an Indonesian engagement.

Here are some more pictures of the engagement ceremony

Another Earthquake

I actually felt this one. I was sitting in my chair and then it felt like I was swaying back and forth. It did not last very long and as far as I know no one was hurt or injured.
