Well…

The last state to fall is Pennsylvania! There was an opportunity there that we were considering, but it was not to be.

There is a much longer story that I will tell in an upcoming newsletter, but for now I can say that we are moving to SW Florida to help start Founders Seminary.

Thank you for taking this journey with us. It meant more than you can imagine. In the end, it wasn’t about going to a single location, but the opportunity to multiply my impact through investing in the next generation of pastors that led to this decision. Also, we were very keen to plant our lives in a healthy church.

Tom Ascol and I have fought many battles together. He is one of my best friends and one of the wisest, most humble, and most godly pastors I know. I am honored to link arms with him.

Please pray for us. And please pray for Founders Seminary!

Ok, it just got real… We are down to the Final Four! And today we eliminate one of the top picks among those playing along. Interestingly, most people based their assumptions on the sheer volume of people relocating to Tennessee.

The Volunteer State is a fantastic place, but it is not where we will settle.

Six down… four to go!

Is your final three still intact?

Today Arizona comes off the list. There was an opportunity there that we considered a while back, but it was not the right time or place.

I have a conference coming there with on February 1st, and I'd love to meet .grudem and hang out with my cousins who live in the Phoenix area. I thought about leaving AZ on the list ‘till then, but that would have been downright cruel. 😜

Two down… eight to go!

Are your top three still in the hunt?

Last Thanksgiving in Zambia… no turkey. No ham. Just boxes and movers. 😭

Final departure Sunday.

VBM Hawaii Tour!

After more than a decade and a half, I'm heading back to Hawaii. Three island stops.

Will you be there?

After nearly a decade in Zambia, the time has come for the Bauchams to repatriate to the USA.

There is a longer story (sign up for our newsletter for more information), but the short version is, our December-February furlough will be our transition back.

PLEASE PRAY!

Please pray for everything surrounding the sale of our house in Lusaka.

Please pray for ACU. There are many changes on the horizon and our hope is that the best days are ahead.

Please pray for us as we work to wrap things up in the next few weeks (we leave December 1st).

Pray for our children. This transition will not be easy.

Pray for wisdom as we seek to follow the Lord in regard to our next move.

Pray for our furlough. We still need to take care of a number of things in the U.S. before we settle.

If you are in Kigali, Rwanda, join me this Sunday at Reformation Baptist Church for a one-day (ALL DAY) conference!

And before you ask… No, it will not be livestreamed. 🥴

Please pray for our brethren in Rwanda. One of the church plants there (from Kabwata Baptist Church in Lusaka) lost their pastor in a tragic motorcycle accident. I am one of many trying to help fill in as they recover.
