Jambo!
These last few days have been crazy, but a good crazy. We went from our original plan of staying at a Guest House, paying 3,000usd for a room with 2 double beds and a cot. Then we moved to coming in contact in only a GOD way, with a lady in Nairobi serving with an Home-schooling NGO, who suggested we go the route of renting an apartment. So Mary graciously looked into that for us, and came up with two options. At 8:00 this morning, we were ready to book an 3 bedroom apartment for 1,250usd. Well, with the time difference, we would have to wait til after 9:00 when our bank opens to get the funds out and get them transfered. In that hour, again by a GOD way, I received an email from Sandy Stoltzfus friends of ours doing Missions work in Nairobi. Her email stated that she may have another option for us. This option would be a 4 bedroom Missionaries house, in the same location where the Stoltzfus' are at. The current Missionaries residing there, are coming home on furlough. The cost of renting this home would be 500.00usd!!!!!! Did you hear that 500.00.......We could be going from 3,000 to 500.00. Sandy is waiting for confirmation on this option, as the timing would have to work out, as far as them being gone by the time we arrive, and to see if it is still open for rent. Meaning that noone else is on the plate to rent it.
Please pray for this situation. God has been so faithful. We should get word sometime this weekend.
Thank you all so much for your continual support and prayers!!!!!
God is good all the time

A little about us, and where were at, and where were heading
As a family we desire to be part of the greater purpose and picture of helping those in need, and being laborers of the great Harvest. We want to do more than just sit behind a desk and think of those who need the Lord and need help. We are wanting to be a part of an Organization that makes it there priority to help those in need, to share the Good News with those whom have yet to hear.
So what do we do to make that desire a reality? We make ourselves open and available to the Lord and His plans for us. We seek him earnestly, and follow His leading.
We are taking the first steps in following the Lords Will. We have put our house on the market; so that we may be completely available to Him and to where He wants us.

PRAYING FOR US
Continual spiritual growth for our family.
For the sale of our house!

14 But how can they call on Him if they have not put their trust in Him? And how can they put their trust in Him if they have not heard of Him? And how can they hear of Him unless someone tells them? 15 And how can someone tell them if he is not sent? The Holy Writings say, "The feet of those who bring the Good News are beautiful." Romans 10:14,15
