I am writing because it looks like we will be moving North, to Pennsylvania in a bit. Roland has been heavily recruited for a promotion with Linde (the company he currently works for). The job is located in Bethlehem, PA, which is on the eastern PA border to New Jersey. Roland will be going to PA for an interview and to sign hiring papers on August 12th.
A few prayer requests come with this. First, that everything will continue to go well and God will guide our steps. Peace and calmness for Roland during the interview. Our house also will be sold which is complicated since we have only lived here 2 years (as of the end of August). We are both, as you know, very involved in our church so our leaving means new leaders need to step up. We teach 4th grade Sunday School and DivorceCare for Kids. We know that God has already laid a call on people to fill these positions. Please pray with us that they will answer the Lord's leading to serve. Please pray for all the kids involved. This could be a difficult transition for them because the 9th is the beginning of the new year. (So, we will be there for maybe 3 weeks then it's new teachers!)
We are both extremely excited about the job and moving. Oh, we LOVE North Georgia, our friends, church and home! However, this move will put us closer to aging grandparents and other family. God is throwing doors open too!! We have been offered a wonderful relocation package, a place to live while we sell our home, Alex and Jane have a place to stay while we live in a hotel room for two months and last night I was even offered a job! Rome (current boss) is very excited about Roland being promoted and very understanding. Please praise the Lord with us for these blessings!

oh girl I will def pray and miss you ....our church will miss yalls serving smiling faces. Hope all goes smoothly during the move...take care and please remember to blog esp now since you'll be way up North
ReplyDeleteWow!! That is great news for you both!! Of course we will miss you here at TBC because in such a short time you have become one of the leaders of the church! You both jumped in and haven't stopped which is something to be admired! Me and Eric adore you guys and hate that we haven't got to spend more time with you in fellowship. His work schedule and Kaleb provide us with little time and the time we have is spent at church!
ReplyDeleteYou will be in our prayers, thoughts, and hearts but I am so thankful that you get to be nearer to family! That is such a blessing!
Have a great day and see you soon my sweet friend!!

Thank you sweet girls! I will certainly be continuing to blog! ;o) It is such a fun way to keep in touch. We will really miss TBC and the wonderful friends we have made there! It's the saddest part of us making this move.
