However, in 2012, we hope to be back in Australia. We're hoping that the addition of sunlight and fresh air to our lives diminishes the frequent illness. We'll see how that goes!
At this stage we are planning to move back around March but this isn't definite.
What is definite is the job Mark has been offered at Queensland Theological College from June, 2012. It's a great opportunity to serve God and we are quite excited about it. We had always expected to return to Sydney to serve at Moore Theological College, so this is a bit sudden and unexpected for us, and we will miss our friends in Sydney and the community at Moore. But Brisbane looks like the way forward.
If you regularly pray for us, you might want to join us in praising God for his continued provision for us and for this opportunity. You might also like to pray for the new principal of QTC (Gary Millar) as he and his family move across the globe, and for us as we undertake a similar move. There are lots of details to be ironed out and many decisions to be made. Pray we'll honour the Lord Jesus by being kind, wise and capable over the next few months. Oh, and that Mark will finish his thesis (which is coming along very well).
Here we all are...
We wish you a memorable Christmas and happy New Year. (We're not sure if that's 'you' singular or plural... can't be too many readers left! ;)

Congratulations! What great news. Anne Milton *will* be happy. Say hi to the QTC crowd for me. Look forward to catching up when we are next in Brisbane - probably 2014. We have two link churches up that way.
Looking forward to having you guys at QTC.
A loss for Moore, and a gain for QTC. I really mean that. I'm quite sad about this news, though delighted for you guys of course that our Lord has put his next step before you.
This is where RSS really hits its stride!
I'd heard about QTC, and that's great news - I'm loving hearing all the good stuff that's going on in Brissy. Our loss, their gain...
Ah, the beauty of the English language and 'you' - singular / plural doesn't matter.
Glad for the update. Merry Christmas to you(se) too.
Congrats! We are in Ireland from not till (probably) Feb, but are planning to be back in England - and visit Oxford - sometime around late Feb. It would be great to meet up if you are still in this hemisphere then...
