We are asking for your prayers.
Quick Update:
Our scheduled departure date for Italy was 2 weeks ago today. We were forced to cancel our flights due to not having yet received our visas.
In recent days, we have been in contact with the Italian consulate on the phone regarding the status of our visas. From our conversation we learned:
1) They may not be officially recognizing the Bible School in Scandicci Italy, and therefore will not be issuing anymore student visas.
2) After reviewing our paperwork, the consulate decided to change our request for a "Missionary Religious Visa" to a "Work Visa." They did this without first notifying us.
What does this mean?
If the Bible School is not recognized we cannot send any workers to the school. Also, a work visa, is near to impossible to receive, and is not what we need anyways!
What we are doing:
David, the current director will be contacting the consulate today to try and better communicate the need to process our visas, and to resolve these issues.
PLEASE JOIN US IN PRAYER today that God will move this mountain and we can begin/continue this work in Italy!
We love you all. We are so grateful to be a part of the body in Christ.
