November 22

Well, this morning Andrew left back to Elk Grove, California to finish up his last semester* on his first master's. It was great to be up here with him for almost three weeks with my family and myself. We look forward to seeing each other on November 22nd when he flies up here for Thanksgiving. We know God has a plan for us and that He will take care of us, so we are thankful for that. During this time we look forward to both being in school, me subbing and hopefully Andrew finding a part time job, me looking for a place for us to live when we officially move up here in January, and hanging out with our families. If anyone knows of a cheap place to live in Portland hopefully around the Western Seminary campus, please let us know. We would like to live in a house that we can rent, but whatever God provides is our best choice right now. Please keep us in your prayers as we are making this transition right now, but we know God has brought us to this point and He will not fail us now or never.

*For those of you that are wondering or have not really talked to us...we are living a part because the classes Andrew needs to finish his first master's is only offered in Sacramento at this time. Andrew could have moved up here, but it would have extended his first master's and he would like to start his Masters of Theology in January up here in Portland. I am living in Gresham with my parents because for the past year we have been out of work and we felt that I needed to come up and work to have money saved for rent and expenses. According to Dr. Breshears, I need to be the breadwinner!...of course he was just joking.

Hi Kathleen,
Just wanted you to know that we're praying for you and Andrew. I can't imagine being apart for that long--glad you have your family if you have to be! Please let us know if anything specific comes up that you want us to pray for. We'll keep you guys as a couple, work, and finding a place to live at the top. If you ever just need to talk give me a call 503-689-7316! Love, Amy (& Dave)
