We made it back to the States on Christmas Eve without any problems! Our luggage arrived and everything, praise the Lord! So, we'll spend the holidays with family and figure out what God has for us next. We tentatively plan to work and begin raising a son in the U.S. for the next couple of years, and then see where God takes us.
Thanks so much for your prayers and support! We couldn't have made it to Moldova and back without them! Please keep in touch!
(Aside: Justin has written a lengthy debriefing about his time in Moldova for his sponsoring organization, BPN. It includes his observations on the church, the economy, politics, and Business as Missions overall. If you're interested in reading a public version, just send him an email: justintapp@pobox.com).
We wish you all a VERY Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

What we're doing
We are working with the Christian Agency for Micro Enterprise Development (CAMED) in Moldova. This agency provides micro and larger loans to small and medium-sized enterprises there, as well as provides Biblically-principled training for aspiring entrepreneurs.
The agency sponsoring us is Business Professional Network, an international group of Christian businesspeople who desire to help local economies grow through business development.
