Almost finished here!!

We are almost finished with this year of spanish language school here in San Jose, Costa Rica. We have been very busy this last semester of school, trying to learn all that we can here. As we are getting ready to graduate, we are required to either preach in Spanish and/or do a final project in Spanish in front of the entire school body. Roger was able to accomplish preaching his 1st sermon in Spanish 2 weeks ago and did a wonderful job! Our great techy neighbor (thanks Scott!) video taped it for us, and we have posted it on our new Facebook group called: Audorffs Missions in Monterrey (in case you want to join this group, contact us).
Next week Debbi & Leslie (missionary to Colombia) will be presenting their project "La Cumbia" to the school.
We've experienced lots of things this year, including waking up at 1:00am from a tremor from a 6.5 earthquake that was just south of us 3 weeks ago! We've heard gunshots both around our apartment and close to the school this year, we've really improved our spanish, we've met lots of wonderful new friends (both students and teachers and others) and something that was very special to us both this past month, was attending the International YWAM DNA Conference here in San Jose, CR. While there we had a chance to sit and chat with Loren Cunningham, the founder of YWAM, and share what God has been doing in our lives in this change of ministries...and with that he blessed us to do whatever God is calling us to do. We also met with our former National and Regional leaders in YWAM and had a wonderful time with them. We pray that God reveals His plan in this change, and we are believing that He knows best, and has both our and His best in mind.
