Safe and Sound!

Our new home town...LaGrange, WY



Tonight we are writing from LaGrange, Wyoming!  Whew!  And with many things to praise God for.  We ended up signing closing documents on the sale of our house on Monday evening after a day of packing and celebrating Travis' 6th birthday.  Sarah and the kids headed for Wyoming the following morning early and the kids started school at LaGrange Elementary Wednesday morning.  I (Ben) stayed behind in Utah to pick up the moving truck and get it packed.  With the help of many wonderful Utah friends, we were able to get everything packed away (yes, even the motorcycle!) by about 9:00 Tuesday night.  I traveled to Wyoming with a friend from church who was hauling a trailer full of more of our stuff on Wednesday, making what was, for me, record time from Utah to Wyoming.  When we arrived we enjoyed a nice meal at the Dining Hall of Frontier School of the Bible and were blessed when 16 young men (who have much more energy than I do these days) came to help us unload both the trailer and the truck.  What took us 12 + hours to load in Utah took these Frontier students about 90 minutes to unload (yes, even  the motorcycle!).  We enjoyed some lemonade with the wonderful family who is allowing us to use some of their shop space to store most of our things as we look for a more permanent home.  Thursday, our family moved, temporarily, into the Tentmakers Bible Mission guest rooms until the Lord provides a home for us.  Please pray that God would provide something large enough for our family that will meet our needs for the years to come.  Please also pray for these items:
®     That our support level would increase, we are currently at about 30% of our support goal.
®     That God would begin and quickly increase our ministry effectiveness in our new role with TBM.
®     That our family would settle in here well and enjoy this new place that is very different from where we have lived over the past 8 + years.

In Service of the King of Kings,
Ben and Sarah Cline
