We have moved from St. Louis, Missouri to Varese, Italia for three years with Bill’s company. We are excited to see what plans the Lord has for us here in Northern Italy.

Praise God! Let the adventure begin, you are covered in prayer. Love you both, K & Y
‘Love reading your blogs (bye bye ants!). May God bless your every adjustment, and make the learning of the language and metric system easier and easier.
He is able!

Hello Bill & Jen–
I have never done this blog thing before–oh what fun. I loved your pictures and hearing about your adventure. I know God is using you in amazing ways. You are always an encouragement to me. Kayden is doing great with the chemo treatments. Sarah met your Lizzie in Bible Study. May God continue to bless you and keep you.
Hugs,
Sheri
Jen and Bill,
First time I’ve been on the blog to see what you two are up to. Thanks for sharing both the joys and struggles of your adventure. Praying you feel God’s presence in it all.

Hi Bill and Jen!
I spent a bit of time catching up with your blog and loved hearing about all of the places you’ve been, food you’re trying/eating, and life there in general. I can imagine, from your words, the ups/downs of your time there, but I also marvel and thank our Lord for his provisions (spiritually, emotionally, physically, mentally) for you and how your faith is so very evident.
Terry lost his mother July 11 on his dad’s 80th birthday. We were all (children, gchildren, ggchildren) there, in town and at the hospital to say our goodbyes. God’s plan is perfect.
Wedding plans are pretty set. Erin is in Costa Rica with phil at this writing.
Take good care and can’t wait to read more of your “Italian Adventure”.
Love Dana
thinking of you and wow imagining the beauty of the Lord in all you are seeing God bless gail
Jen,
Glad to find your blog. I’m doing the settling in thing too, having just moved to VA. We had a parade of grandparents, 13 out of 16 days we were with them. We also evacuated for our first hurricane (ok, we took a long weekend to see family). It’s weird visiting places that used to be home but aren’t home anymore. I find myself straining hard to remember what state I’m in, and whether or not I call it home. We’ve found a church and I’ve already started Women’s Bible study. I miss my friends from St. Louis, but I’m slowly making VA my home.
Hi B & J
Its interesting to hear about your “Fall” season there. We are in the throws of it here in Wisconsin. We live in the woods, so you can imagine the LEAVES. Very pretty, though. I was touched, Jen, by your comment about your moms passing 6 mths ago and how most of your grieving was in the midst of moving/settling in Italy. Grieving is difficult anyway, but to juggle that with transition. I thank you for your transparency, revealing your heart in so many of your accounts. It connects me instantly with you and for you. I am joyful for the believers God has connected you to and giving you an important task as His messenger. Know that you both are loved, missed, thought of, and prayed for.
Love through Christ,
Dans
