19 Kids in Edinburgh
Have you ever watched this show? I must admit I have only seen bits of it on 2 different occasions however I watched the ENTIRE episode recently. The Duggar Family (19 Kids and Counting) traveled to Scotland. It was so great to see our city and all of the sites, streets and people we see everyday.
Jarrett Family in Edinburgh
We will be traveling soon back to Edinburgh as well however our journey will be a little different than the Duggar Family. With only 2 kids going back with us, we leave Luke here in the USA attending VSOM School in Youngstown, Ohio. As Missionaries, we are used to saying “goodbye” and “hello”.
You would think that it becomes easier over time but to be honest, it really doesn’t. Setting up house again, getting settled into schools, finding a home to live in, etc…are all part of the cost AND joy of being a ‘sent one’ for our Lord. His words to us in Mark chapter 10 bring comfort to those of us honored to carry this calling: Jesus said, “I can guarantee this truth: Anyone who gave up his home, brothers, sisters, mother, father, children, or fields because of me and the Good News will certainly receive a hundred times as much here in this life. They will certainly receive homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields, along with persecutions. But in the world to come they will receive eternal life.”
Thank You for keeping us in your prayers this Holiday Season as we prepare to return to Scotland. As the Holy Spirit touches your heart, thank you for becoming one of our partners in this work.
