Changes in the Air

Well, we've got a couple of things in the works that could make for an exciting rest of the year.

First up Mike has a last minute opportunity to go to Mexico with our church Jr. High Mission trip in July. He had been on the waiting list but we honestly kind of forgot about it, then we got a call last week that a spot had opened up. We are excited about the opportunity, but waiting expectantly to discover how the Lord is going to come up with the money. We have to come up with $900 by July 5th, plus pocket money for him while he is there. We are planning to have a yard sale in a couple of weeks and will be sending out support letters soon, as well. It's quite a crunch, but we really believe that he should go.

The second thing (which would help with the first) is that I may work at the elementary school for a few months. The secretary is taking medical leave and suggested me as her temporary replacement. I'm putting in an application and waiting to see how it all shakes out. I'm a bit alarmed at the idea of going back to work after 15 years, but it would be a great situation. If it works out I will start July 16th and work until sometime around February. It might be hard on the kids, but I think they would be able to handle it for such a short time.

So there you have it.
