Hello, everyone! Trenton and I wanted to post a small update here to let you all know what’s new in our world. We wrapped up our last summer camps at the end of August, and just moved back to the US this week.

As we explained in our last email, our one year contract with GEM (Greater Europe Mission) ended this summer, but we are currently going through the long-term application process with them to serve at least another two years at Camp des Cimes.

This application process is lengthy, but we hope to be officially commissioned as long-term GEM missionaries by the beginning of November and to start raising more financial support after that.

Our goal is to be back in France and working at Camp des Cimes as soon as possible, but for the next several months, we will be living and working in Scottsdale, Arizona and visiting friends and family across the U.S. when we can.

We would really appreciate your continued prayer at this time! Please pray:

• For grace and peace as we transition back to living in the U.S. We are happy to be back with friends and family but are sure to have some reverse culture shock and an adjustment period after living in a tiny village in France this past year.
• For our application process with GEM to continue to go smoothly and that we are ultimately able to partner with them long term.
• For peace and faith in the Lord as we face the uncertainty of this next season of life.

We will keep you all updated as our situation progresses, but please always feel free to reach out to us at hailey.pullin@gemission.org or trenton.slagle@gemission.org.
