I have wonderful news! I went and checked out my apartment today and it is so wonderful! I just feel overwhelmingly blessed. They said originally that it was going to be a studio apartment but when we walked in I was pleasently suprised to find out that it is one-bedroom (so now you guys can all stay with me when you come up to visit, and Vanessa can move in with me when she comes!). Also it is partially furnished, another suprise! I have a beautiful queen sized bed, a dresser, a couch and a wonderful dining table and chairs! It also came with a fridge, a freezer, a dishwasher and a disposal and it has such wonderful storage space! And then Necie is gonna let me have her TV and stand. I might have another couch coming and we're gonna go garage sale shopping this weekend so pray that we find treasures (i need a vacuum)! : )
Everyone has just been so great, offering me things and brainstorming on where I can find this and that. Oh I've also been offered some spices and I'm gonna be loaned dishes and silverware until mine come. I really couldn't ask for more. Oh and I have such sweet neighbors too, a bunch of other people that work at the hospital, I just feel so at home and nice a safe too. If only I had a cord for my camera so I could send you all pictures- I'll try to figure something out.
Tonight I went to church for the first time since I've been there and it was so great to be there. It was wonderful to see the kids! They even remembered my name and were really excited to see me. I'd really missed those kids, I'm so glad to be back with them, I'm anxious to get started teaching Sunday School again.
I'm reminded of the verse that I wrote on here before I came about God providing for what He's called us to do. Man what a testimony I am of that. I just can't even believe all the providing that God has done, I took my little step of faith and He has rushed in to confirm and bless! I'm truly humbled and amazed. He's given me far beyond what I deserve or could have hoped for- not just in monetary thing but in friends and then just the sense of peace that I have. There's no better place to be than in the will of God.
I'll have to come back and look at this when things get tough though, as I know they will... I'll need to be reminded of God's confirmation and blessings. Maybe you all can remind me. : ) But on the mountain and in the valley God remains the same and I'm excited for whatever comes my way!
Alright I'm feeling sleepy, I best be going but I'll write more soon.
Love you all! Thanks so much for your prayers. I know that it's the prayers of the saints that have been making a big impact!

I can't wait to come to Bethel to see your first apartment. And to meet all the beautiful Bethel people.
You didn't tell us the PO Box name. I think Lyle should be his name.
Praise the Lord for his faithfulness. Can I really move in there? Would they let me? I'm glad you have a space and a bed and such wonderful things. It's nice too when the kids remember your name. That is always the worst part when you have to leave the kids. Please email me your address!!! Love!
