Permanent Residency Sponsorship

Praise the Lord.  We have received word from the immigration department that the Wesleyan Methodist Church of Australia has received approval to sponsor us for a permanent residency visa.  This is a big step in the right direction.  We have also received a list of things that they immigration department would like in order to approve our visa application.  Pray that we will be able to get all of the things that they want in a timely manner and that they would look favourably on our application.  Having permanent residency would relieve a lot of stress when we are on partnership development as we wouldn't have to apply for any further visas to serve in Australia.  Thank you for your prayers.
