getting ready

When we think about moving a lot of emotions pop up, like excitement, nervousness, sadness...
this has been a week of sadness.

We resigned from our youth ministry position at church on Sunday and have been meeting with our kids to tell them that we're moving. If you know us, you know that we don't always have glowing reports of our church, but for all its quirks, our church is still hard to leave. We're working to set something up so that the church will have a youth director in place very soon and hope that works out. I've been at church for three years and was hoping that i would see one more class graduate.

I'm learning to trust and pray that God will continue to grow these young people to know and love Him, even though I won't be a part of that.

In other news, Andrew has heard back from one church in the Wheaton area. He made it through their first round of elimination. They had a second meeting last night, so we are waiting to hear back in the next few days. It would be great for him to get an interview!
