Family News

Dear Friends,

Leslie and I want to inform you that I have been offered a post teaching English at my high school alma mater Pine Forge Academy (a boarding school near Pottstown, PA). Thus, we are relocating temporarily. The prayer is that grad school will bring us back to Atlanta fall of next year. In the meantime, this is the opportunity that has presented itself. So we go in faith.

It all happened in a matter of 2 weeks, which is why we haven't had the chance for proper goodbyes. We solicit your prayers and positive thoughts. It's not always easy to go home again. This is the table that nourished me through adolescence (but I am a very different person now). This also happens to be the place where both of Leslie's parents grew up, so there is family left in the area. It will be exciting for the children to spend time with their remaining great-grand.

We look forward to connecting with old friends and friends we have come to know and love at a distance. We will also sorely miss you we are leaving behind. Pray with us that it won't be long. God bless. Until next time...

In the adventure,
Melvin, Leslie, Jaya, Kari & Melvin 4.0
