Hey everyone. I just wanted to update those of you who read our page on the house situation. We are still looking at and praying for the house we checked out about 2 Mondays ago where we would be able to stay for 11 months. It would be temporary, however we would have some room of our own and breathing room giving us time to settle and discover what God is wanting us to do for the future. The home would also offer us space to bring not only people but also our dogs.
As you know, we believe God has put the desire in our hearts for community building within the people we know and others who we will meet and in order to have place for this to happen we need some space to invite people into. We believe community is discovered and relationships built in homes and around the table, this is one reason why we continue to cry out for a home of our own. Rather than look into buying a house or signing some contract on an apartment we believe this is a better option at this time. It gives us a home within walking/riding distance, room for guests and a place for our dogs to be with us again.
As of right now we sent out many requests for people to join us in this step of faith having gotten some response we are still short by about $800 per month. We need to raise $1250 per month above what we have at this time and have raised only $450.
We are believing God for the rest and we are asking those of you who want to pray with us to join in our requests. We need to have some answers for the owners soon as we have talked with them and they are not pursuing anyone else as of yet, however we can't continue to keep them waiting.
The move would take place at either the end of July or early August.
Please pray and if you want to participate in the support, please let us know.
Until later
