September 2015

We began the fifth month of our mission being the only Senior Couple in Jakarta, and added the Moss', the new office couple, and the Bairds, the new public affairs couple.  They both will live in our apartment building and work at the mission home.  A new MLS couple, the Hansens are assigned to serve in Surabaya.

We traveled much this month, our first trip was to Lamongan to sign the documents for the new toilet at the NU primary school.

Brenda's husband, Nate came to Indonesia on a business trip for Newmont Mining to Sumbawa.  He had a 24 hour layover in Bali so we coordinated a needed visit to the Bali Branch so we could meet and visit with him as well.
