Amanda Graduated!


Hello to all! So...Amanda graduated on the 13th. The semester ended with a bang, as we finished classes and all of Amanda's classmates were frantically trying to get packed and prepare for family memebers and friends to arrive for the graduation that was held at the school in the auditorium. The graduation went very smoothly.

Now that Amanda is all graduated she is going to begin working. She will be working at the nursing home here and also at Bath and Body Works for the holidays. She really enjoys her job and likes being able to help the people there as much as possible. She is currently working 2pm-10:30pm and she is trying to switch to the 6am-2:30pm shift so she will be home more when Mitchell will be.
Mitchell will be entering his senior semester this January. He will then graduate in May. After that we are desiring to go on with our training with New Tribes Mission to that Missionary Training Center (MTC) in Camdenton Missouri, but first we need to take some time off to get plugged into our church in Idaho-Christ Community Church. We would also love to be able to spend some time in Alaska at Wasilla Bible Church to reconnect with all of the wonderful people that Amanda knows up there, and to be able to serve there, but we are not sure when that will happen. We are just looking forward to what is going on now in our lives, and also for the things that are to come!

We got the paper from the U.S. Government telling us when Mitch's appointment to get his finger prints done (Dec. 27th). After we get those done we will just be waiting for his work permit to come in the mail. As soon as he gets that he can begin working. He is looking forward to that.

We want to thank all of you again, our dear friends and family, for all your support. It means so much! We long to see you all again, and look forward to be able to spend some time with you.

With love,

the Chaplins
