Dare We Say "Finally" - II

We received an email today from our Immigration Officer stating that our Application for Residency has been approved.
Good news.
She also informed us that our application is in the Visa issuing queue which may take up to two weeks to process.
Bad news.

Consider this a prayer request because...
If the processing takes two weeks, that will bring us to the 13th of January, a mere 16 days away from my job start date. In that time, we will need to: activate a bank account, buy a car, get health coverage, find somewhere to live, process our shipment, live without our shipment, learn to drive on the wrong side of the road, figure out where to buy groceries, not to mention prepare to teach a brad-new curriculum to brand-new students in a country 13,048km from home.
Needless to say, we are stressed out already.

Please pray that the processing time is speedy. Pray also that we can feel peace. Pray for our emotions and the emotions of our family members, as this has been a rollercoaster like none other.

Thanks.
