Week 5 Completed and More....

Keith has completed his fifth week teaching his class in Battle Creek for Davenport University/Michigan Works.  It was another week of drama with some of the students.  One other day, he stopped to pick up a treat for one of his student's birthday.  Someone commented that the homemade cookies that he brought last week were better than the ones he had bought.  Ha!

Next week will be his final week.  He will be doing some team teaching a couple of days, and then will wrap up things on Thursday afternoon.  Friday morning, he has the students that are studying for their GED.

At the present time, Keith does not know if they will continue another six weeks until they meet for their debriefing session week after next.  With that being said, we'll appreciate your prayers for continued employment opportunities for Keith.

Marsha Begins Her New Job!

Friday, Marsha began her new job.  She went to her supervisor's house to get some instruction on what she will be doing.  She also picked up her computer, phone, and other materials; now to install the cable from the phone to the wireless router, and second monitor, and phone headset.  She'll feel better when she gets her permanent work space set up.  As of now, she will begin with the phone work Monday.  She'll appreciate your prayers as she adjusts and learns the system, etc.  Once she gets familiar with the website, she'll feel  more confident, of course.

Thanks, once again, for your prayers for us as we go through this journey.  One year ago, we would have never thought we would be in this position today.  God has a plan.  We wait for Him to reveal that perfect plan for Keith and me.  We are so blessed!  Keith may not have a job, but we know that God is so good to us.  He is our ultimate Provider.  Keith has realized this more and more as he has worked with these students.  Some of them live in shelters with their kids; one girl has six kids and she's about Jessica's age.  It is said that you can always look around and find someone who is worse off than you in whatever circumstance you find yourself in.

Faithfully waiting for His plan in His perfect time.....
