Settling In

We are finally settled into our new apartment in our new state. It is starting to feel like home but of course home is still in New York. We can successfully find the Wal-Mart, Target, Grocery Store, Mall, Gas Station, and our new church without using our GPS. We have enjoyed dinner with our best friends now that they are home from their honeymoon.

Yesterday, we visited a church that we really enjoyed. South Bridge Fellowship in Brier Creek. The odd thing is that it is in a movie theater. They are not building a church, they simply believe that this is the best way to reach their community. People were very friendly and they welcomed us with open arms. The message was great. The pastor is very like-able and down to earth, really reminds me of our home pastors. Roger says he talks fast and louder when he is passionate about something like  Pastor Jim but then knows how to throw in a family story like Pastor Brian. He is a good mix of both. The message was very convicting and really spoke to my heart. We cannot wait to go back.

Roger and I are desperate to find community and find a place where we really belong. I am very excited to say that I am attending a conference that I found through our new church. It is put on by Pure Religion. The conference ranges for all sorts of people who are interested in adoption. Roger and I are not adopting (yet) but I want things in my mind to stay fresh. I am really excited to attend a session about the growing need in Africa. I am thankful for this opportunity and cannot wait to go.

Other than that not much is happening. Roger and I both need jobs by mid-August before we run out of money but we are trusting God. I am also trusting that God will provide us with jobs with enjoy. I personally have my heart set on this Aquatics Director job but only God knows.

So there you have it folks, an update on our life. I am hoping to fall back in a a regular blogging pattern once we have internet at our apartment.

Enjoy your day!
