It all started in May when Jonny graduated from CIU. We have desired to get out of Columbia for sometime now, so when he graduated we decided to send our resume anywhere and everywhere. We want/wanted to go wherever God wants us to end up. We prayed and prayed and NO doors were opening, not even here in Columbia! Jonny remained unemployed while we continued to trust. We found out some of our friends from Greenville where moving out of their apartment...
which is an apartment ministry with Taylors First Baptist church. The couple in this position would minister in every and any way possible to those in their apartment complex (and the church would provide compensation for their time) ...
Therefore, they recommended us and we jumped on board by having a "get to know you" meeting (or interview) with those in charge of the ministry. We took the application, filled it out and waited. Last week they faxed us our tax form and had us fax it back. We read between the lines without them telling us, that we got the position. We kinda had clues here and there but nothing was ever official, later to find out because the person in-charge of the paperwork, background checks, and finances was no longer in that position, so there was still confusion and scrambling going on at the church.
This leads me to my previous post... Today we rented a U-Haul so we can store all of our belongings in my parents garage while we stay with them for the next two weeks. We are looking at moving to Greenville, SC on July 19th and starting the apartment ministry where the other couple left off.
And God continues to open doors. Following the meeting for the apartment ministry, I randomly went in to talk to my friend who is moving out of the apt's current boss (@ Miracle Hills Boys Home). Once again I left with an application to fill out, which I did but never mailed in... this did not stop God, though because yesterday I got a phone call from the boss checking in on my application bc she wants a second interview with me (and to talk about when training would be possible). I go in on Monday for the second interview and it sounds like things are going to work out!!
God is our provider and we will follow Him wherever he wants us to go...
