New additions to the Team!

The Lord has brought an unexpected twist into our lives. Many of the supplies here at McMurdo are flown in from Argentina and Jennifer and I have been keeping in contact with a church there in Buenos Aires, the capital city. This past month we received sad news about one of the families in the church. The mother and father were tragically killed in a automobile accident, leaving behind seven children. After much prayer, Jennifer and I felt the Lord wanted us to adopt them and we finally completed all of the paperwork yesterday afternoon.

We will be flying out to Buenos Aires this next weekend to bring the kids back to McMurdo. We are excited about this new turn of events in our lives. Please pray for wisdom and strength as we transition into parenthood. The new additions to our family are Stephen (13), Matt (12), Jessica (10), Franklin (9), Kitty (7), Ben (5), and Tommy (3). Thanks so much for your prayers and support.

In Him,

Elijah and Jennifer Maxwell
