2 vans at home and ready to load.

it's freezing cold here today - we're about to have a cooked breakfast before loading the vans throughout today

tomorrow we drive to our new home - anything up to around a 6 hour journey, and unload them

on Saturday we return the vans and drive back to our new home - around a 11-12 hour day

our car engine started playing up yesterday, but Jo made it to her last day of work and back, and we made it to the van hire place this morning.

we need another 500 miles or so out of the car, as we have no money for repairs (we suspect the last two, original, fuel injectors) and will need to find a garage once we've arrived at the new house. even if we had the money, garages are booking many days into the future anyway

plenty to pray for, and into, over the next 72 hours or so!!

we're certain God hasn't brought us this far to fall at the final hurdle, so we're holding to hope and Jesus!!

@Berrybunchfamily We will pray that God assists you at every stage of moving to the new home and that he will provide you with everything you need. God bless you.

@faith20 thanks my brother

You're ever on my heart and in my prayers

What's the situation in Italy?

@Berrybunchfamily

Thousands of Italians are in quarantine at home and therefore there are many closed shops.

Restaurants and hotels are empty and risk bankruptcy.

A mask is mandatory on the street and in closed places.

There is a strange atmosphere. People all have sad and worried faces.

There is a campaign of discrimination and denigration against those who are not vaccinated which leads to thinking and saying very unpleasant things against what they call "no vax".

Think that today in Italy those who have done up to the second dose of vaccine are called "no vax". So even those who have been vaccinated but have not taken the last dose are a "no vax".

I have tried to best summarize what is happening but the reality is worse.

Thanks so much. Knowing that there are brothers and sisters who pray for us is of great encouragement and, beyond that, we believe that God answers the prayers of his children. God bless you.
