BIG PRAYER NEEDED

I am sorry to not be posting any pics. It is mainly because I do not have time to sit and wait for them to upload. We just got back from being in Wisconsin for 2 weeks on Monday and I am leaving in about 1 hour to go up to Georgia for three weeks. We are on assignment at a Young Life camp and are so excited about it. This has been great in terms of getting out of the house so that it can be shown.

This is where the prayer needs to come in BIG TIME. You see we get back on August 8th and Chris starts his new job in Bradenton on August 11th. Although we have had some showings at the house, including one tonight right after we leave, we have not yet had an offer. Chris and I have gone over and over in our heads what we would do if the house does not sell. It seems to make the most sense for me and the girls to stay here and for Chris to leave on Monday mornings and come back on Friday nights. As much as we do not want to be apart, and this sounds awful, we want to be wise financially and at this point---especially with Chris going almost three months without a paycheck, we cannot afford our mortgage and a rental. We also want to create stability for the kids and not be moving them around every week. We really want MC to start at St. Stephens in the Fall but obviously this will not be possible if we are here. So we are just asking that you pray we would get an offer. That we would know the best place to price our house and if we need to lower it, and that all of this would be able to happen while we are out of town so that we can come back and move up the road to beegin the next chapter of our lives.

Lastly if you would pray that we would not worry about it and be able to serve Young Life kids and the areas that come to sharp top cove over the next three weeks. We are so excited about being there with some friends and know that it will be a special time for us to serve others and for our kids to see God work!! Hope all is well and I will try to keep you updated from camp if not on the blog then on facebook!
