answered prayers

Dear friends,

I cannot thank you enough for your support and prayers! The reason I was so anxious a few days back was because my husband had an important interview for a job he really wanted. After a summer of waiting on God's perfect timing, he has been very ready for the right job to come along. It was especially nerve-wracking because he felt God calling him to this position, which would have made it even more devastating if he did not get the job.

Thankfully that was not the case! I am happy to report that (starting next week) my husband will be the Executive Director at a local ministry that benefits people in need within our community. This could not be a more perfect fit for him! He has a huge heart for  social justice, but especially for people who are often overlooked or have a hard time "getting by." He has also learned a lot about community development and the needs of our specific area. Though it is a big job (huge, actually) and will require a lot of learning, I know he will do an amazing job! I am so proud of his hard work in getting to this new phase of our lives.

God is good! We are so incredibly grateful.
