Update

Well, we have been in PA for 3 weeks. Time has flown! We are gradually finding our way around everywhere and getting reacquainted with old friends.

The Lord graciously allowed me to find a job at the Caron Treatment Center which is a center for those who are addicted to drugs or alcohol. I am actually working in the Student Assistance Office which sends trainers into the local schools to do presentations on tobacco addiction and also help those who are already addicted. It is a sobering thought to look at the reports and see how young kids start smoking and also for the reasons that they start smoking. I truly believe that this job is from the Lord as He worked out all of the details:
1) My resume fit the job description to a "T"
2) My office is 1.07 miles from where we are staying
3) The timing was perfect
4) My boss is a great woman who is hard working and caring

Heston is thoroughly enjoying his job and is getting things ready for the school year. He has enjoyed getting to know some of the people at the school.

We are still praying for our house to sell. We know God will sell it in His own perfect timing. It is always hard to wait, but God has been teaching us to trust in Him and to look to Him alone for guidance. We are thankful for His faithfulness to us and for directing us in each step of the way. We are excited to see what He is going to continue to do in our lives.

Thanks for the update! I've been praying for your house to sell and will keep it up. Are you waiting to buy a home in PA until your house in WI sells?

Wow, what a challenging and fulfilling job!
