Repairing the floor.

Just thought I would share the process of repairing my floor. You might note there is no cement foundation. I was very surprised to see bare ground under the wood floor. Some of the beams were rotting and need to be replaced through out the living room. Supposed to be finished today. We will see.

Travel to the United States

Well, here it is the information about my trip to the United States. I have my tickets purchased I am leaving Madagascar on May 1, 2010 and will arrive in New York on the 2^nd. I will stay a day or two at my friend’s house and then fly to Michigan and my Dad’s house. I have debriefing at World Venture May 31 to June 5, 2010 at the mission headquarters. After that I will go to Tucson for about a month, then back to my Dad’s house until August 2, 2010 when I will start the training with MTI. That training is 3 weeks and afterwards I will go to NY and head back to Madagascar on September 6, 2010.

Here are my prayer requests:

1. For safe travel during the many hours in a plane and airports.

2. God will continue to use me in ways I could never imagine.

3. I continue to Grow in my Faith. I am currently working on a study about how to deal with offense. Wow what a journey.

4. A good time with my Mom, Dad and brother and sisters while in the States.

5. A growing time while at the World Venture debriefing week.

6. A great time of learning about other cultures during the MTI class

7. The money will come in to cover the cost of transportation and the training.

Here is a breakdown on the funds needed while on home assignment.

Travel and transportation $1,500.00 (airfare and car rental)

Training $2,000.00

I have already made the deposit for the training and having to take a big step of faith that God will provide.

Thank you for praying with me. Hope to spend some time with each of you. Start looking at your calendar and let me know when we can meet, have tea and a time to chat. God Bless you all
