First married newsletter!
Forgive the fogginess of my brain lately…
The last few months have been full of… Change! Being back in the US of A… being in
California, which is unlike the Midwest, where I come from… being married! Working….Anyway, as a brief update of life:
-Japan- YES! Please see newsletter! J If you aren’t a subscriber to our
newsletters, please email me at Janine 233 at yahoo dot com. I’ll be sure to send you one!
-Marriage- Good. I like being together with my best friend, studying the Word together, doing ministry together, being a helper. Good.
-Work- Currently working an Appraisal Management Company. I started making introductory calls to those
getting appraisals done… introducing the company and setting up everything for
the appraisal to get done. Now, I’m
working in Support, which I enjoy better than the intro calls. It’s a great job, with good hours and
benefits and a lot of fellow church members.
It’s a great (getting tired of that adjective) atmosphere… definitely a
blessing!
On THAT news front… Cool Story! So, about 2 weeks ago, Vicente took his mom to the store. As he was waiting for her, he ran into a friend. His friend asked casually about his work, to which Vicente replied that his company did not seem to be doing too well. To this point, Vicente has been a welder at a windows and doors company. His friend offered to see what he could do at his company. A couple days later, Vicente got a call and set up an interview. On the day of his interview, his company called a meeting and announced officially that they were closing down that location. Two weeks later, Vicente is starting a new job as a driver for a contract company. He gets to drive cars all day to dealerships and auction houses. He enjoys his job (who wouldn’t when you get to drive Mercedes and Infinitis!)… and again, what a timely blessing! Just a reminder, God is taking care of us.
Between Vicente and I, we have one car. It makes more sense that he use the car for
work. My job is only 3 miles away. For a while, there was a lady at our work who
would pick me up in the mornings from a nearby stop … However, my boss noticed
that I was car-less. Her husband also,
by choice, walks in the mornings to his job.
So, they talked about it, and offered me their car for use during the week!!
This came just at the time that my friend at work let us know she had been
offered another position at a new company.
So! I still walk Monday mornings, but how thankful am I that God has
provided even the small things we need.
Citizenship: Sent. Waiting.
Approx. 5-6 months? Don’t know.
Pets: none.
Break Free: Some updates in the newsletter which I will skip
here. But also: we have a few outreaches
coming up. One in Napa the first weekend
of October; another with Dale Pugh and Christoph Zurcher later in October….
Other than that, our weekly outreaches, including a new one starting at a
nearby university, I believe… more on that later.
Alrighty, tis all for now.
Will try to be more frequent in blogs and stories.
Grateful for all you people.
Seriously.
