Housing Update

For those who have been faithfully praying for us, or just following our blog and thinking about us now and again.... we need you to lift us up to the Father this week!!

Three weeks ago we submitted an offer on a house in Tallassee and things have really been rolling since then. Our previous attempt to secure a mobile home fell through and this time it is a full fledged house we are buying... a brick house nonetheless! It has all the things we were looking for, including three bedrooms, two FULL bathrooms, and a nice place to entertain! It has a few things we can fix up and plenty for us to personalize! So tomorrow we should get word that the appraisal is complete and we are a go. The closing attorney has set closing to be Friday at 3:30, please pray that this works out. We (nor anyone involved) don't see reasonable delaying our plans, but you never know. If we do close Friday my parents are coming down this weekend to help us move and I am so very (cautiously) excited!

So prayer request #1... no surprises before Friday so closing can go smoothly

Prayer request #2... we need to sell our current home (we don't need two!)

For the past two years our home has been a trailer in a student trailer park near campus. It has been a blessing but now we're ready to turn it over. If a student buys it, it can stay in the park or we'll hear any offer if someone would like to move it. We're asking a great price and have been advertising it everywhere we can think of. A couple families came by to look on Saturday and the only guy I've found that will buy one this old came by to look at it tonight but no takers yet. Since it looks like we won't sell it by Friday we will have to pay to leave it here another month. Please pray that the Lord will send just the right person that needs to live here as much as we need to sell it! It will make someone a great home
