As I type, Raul should be on a plane headed back to Mexico City. When I talked to him on the phone following his consular interview, he sounded pretty relieved that this part was over and that he would soon be headed "home" to Santa Monica. He arrived at the consulate at 7:00 a.m. today and finally got called in for his interview around 2:00 p.m. He said the interview itself did not take long. Apparently, everything went okay because they gave him the go ahead to schedule his waiver appointment. Raul didn't elaborate much on the questions he was asked, but he was relieved that they didn't ask him many dates. Numbers and dates are definitely not his friend. :)
We found out that one of our friends from Iowa knows a missionary couple in Juarez. I was able to talk to them on the phone on Sunday and they offered for Raul to stay with them when he has to travel to Juarez for his waiver. That will be very helpful to us so we won't have to pay for a hotel room, especially if he ends up having to stay longer than anticipated like this go around. We continue to feel very blessed by the people that God has been bringing into our lives through out this journey.
Thank you all for your prayers. I don't even want to imagine where we would be without them!
