Not So Baby Steps

Right now is transition time for us! Our support is coming in (praise God!), but is coming in a lot slower than anticipated (trust God!), so we had some big decisions to make. We simply don't have time to raise support full-time because we are working, so the necessary steps needed to make toward support raising simply aren't getting done because of the limited hours in the day to use. So, we prayed and sought counsel and have finally come to some decisions, and HUGE transitions are in process as a result! Here's a quick summary of all that's happening in the next few months.

--In 3 weeks, we will both be leaving our jobs to embark on full-time support raising.
--In 2 to 3 weeks we will be moving out of our house. God has blessed us with a wonderful family who has extended their "in-law suite" (which is really like a fully furnished apartment) for us to stay in for these next months as their support, so we won't have to pay rent or utilities now that we won't have jobs
--In the month of May we will be traveling to several cities in the Southeast (more details to follow)
--Also in the month of May, we will attend our week long training for TEAM
--In June we will be making several support trips as well as making a trip to Miami, FL to apply for our visa
--In July, we will tentatively be attending a 3 week long intensive training in CO with MTI (Missions Training International). This trip depends on how much support we have.
--In August, we will hopefully leave for Spain in the middle of the month.

So, you may be asking, how will we be able to quit our jobs and still eat?! God has blessed us greatly with a generous tax refund, the sale of a car, and few other odds and ends provisions, which should hold us over for the next few months. Praise God for His provision!!

We'll be giving more details about our trips and training soon, but for now, our life pretty much consists of packing and planning! Thank you for praying for us!

Great News! Since the last time we posted about how much support we had raised, the number has risen by 10%! God is working! We praise Him for the amount of support He has brought in so far!



Would you pray with us that God would bring in the remaining support? If you know of anyone who might be interested in what God is doing in Spain, please let us know! We'd love to share with them!
