Hello!
We received an update (kind of) on our tax situation...
We only found out that I need to personally take up the case with Canada Revenue Agency Monday and negotiate another year in Mexico with them. It is possible, and probably likely that we will get it.
If so, the plan will be to stay around in Tijuana until spring 2011 and then take a 6 month furlough back to Canada. We will need to set up residence somewhere, reestablish healthcare and drivers licenses, register our kids with a homeschool group in Canada and establish other ties with Canada to enable us to be re-posted for an additional 4-5 years in Mexico.
We'd appreciate your prayers that we would find favour with the people we talk to in government and that we could get this extension. When my new teachers heard we may be going back, the one who I thought would be best prepared to give the classes with minimal help was very concerned that he would have no one to help him. I'm concerned that if we go back to Canada this year that the pastoral and leaders training will not continue on and that the momentum we've achieved will stall.
Thank you so much for praying! There are a lot of other people and situations we covet your prayers about for the people we work with- I'll get those to you separately soon!
God bless!!
Mike
