3 More Days

This past week has been a blur. Last Saturday night a lot of our friends had a going away party for us. It was an awesome time of fellowship and worship. Thanks to all of you who were there and had a part in making it happen, it meant far more to us than words can express. We love you guys!

I shipped my Jeep to WA last week. Yesterday the moving people came and packed up our entire house and took it all away. Today we signed the deed to transfer the house to its new owners. In the next couple of days we're going to wrap up some loose ends and say our final goodbyes. It is so amazing how God has moved in every step of this endeavor. I can't think of any other situation that has come together so well in every little detail. He continues to confirm to us that this is His will. Because it is so evident to us that God is ordaining every step, we are very excited for what He has for us in WA. Our prayer is to simply walk the Christian walk and in turn affect the lives around us. Really that's what being a Christian is about, but a fresh start is exciting.

Anyway, we leave on Monday for our cross-country trek. It will be interesting driving with a 1 year old and two big dogs while pulling a trailer. I'm sure we'll have some stories. My hope is to post things as we drive, which depends on whether or not we can pick up a WiFi signal. I guess we'll see. Well, thank you for all of your prayers.

Peace

Harold

I read this with tears, a smile, sadness, excitement and encouragement. I can't believe the time has already come, so quickly, yet I am sure at times it felt to you guys like it would never get here :)

My prayers will be with you as you hit the road Monday.

Each of you (including Lu and Coop :) are so dear to me...I love you all.
