Well the big news is we found a place to live! Last week we drove down to Flint to look for houses to rent. We spent the first day driving around Flint and looking at different neighborhoods. Wow, Flint is exactly how it was described to us, not the best/safest place it seems. We did find one house in a neighborhood that seemed ok, but it seemed it was going to be expensive to heat. That night we went to Davison where Dave and Toni live to stay with them. Their church was looking at renting or buying a building and they invited us to go along to look at it, especially since there was an apartment in it the church might be willing to rent to us. It's a building that rents out office space and also a large room for weddings and church services. Well it didn't work out with the church, but the owner let us look at the apartment and actually said he would consider renting it to us! Well we came back the next day and discussed details with him, and it's going to work out perfect! He has never rented it before and just uses it for storage but we're going to clean it up and he's renting it to us for $400 a month EVERYTHING included! Even internet! We weren't even looking in Davison because it's so expensive - the cheapest we could find was $600 plus utilities, and then this! The Lord seriously had everything worked out for us :)
So we're planning to move in October 10th, just 2 weeks away!
Otherwise we've been busy trying to get to all our churches and supporters. I think we did pretty good. Joel has spoken at Menominee Grace, Stephenson Methodist, Stephenson Assembly of God, New Life in Wausaukee, and last weekend was Country Bible. Next weekend he's speaking at our home church, Interfaith here in Amberg, and that will be our last Sunday here.
Sage turned 4 last month and had a super fun Birthday party, I had an ultrasound and found out we're having a BOY, we had a rummage sale, caught up with old friends, met and had dinner with new friends, visited family....it's been a busy month!
Thank you all so much for your prayers and support and time, we appreciate you all so much! I can't tell you how encouraging it is to run into people who tell us they've been keeping up with us every week and really know what's going on with us, it's so so cool :)
