The Lord has been doing so much in our lives in the last week! We left CT on Thursday, Dec. 11th and arrived in Greenville Friday morning around 6:30. Friday and Saturday were spent catching up after being gone (in CT) 3 months and packing boxes. On Monday morning we rented a 24 ft. box truck from Budget rental and started packing all our belongings. When I first got the truck I thought we would only fill half full. Boy was I wrong. By the time we stuffed the last odds and ends into the back I struggled to keep things from falling out as I pulled the door shut! (Lesson: you always have more stuff than you think you do!). I am so grateful for the help from our the Leblancs, Ruleys, and Dan Smith from Agnew Road Baptist Church in Greenville, SC. If it wasn’t for their help, we would still be packing and loading the truck!

The Lord answered our prayers and allowed the closing to go flawlessly on Tuesday morning @ 10:00. This in itself was an answer to prayer in this housing market!
My brother Josh has been so generous to all us to set up camp in an extra house he has on the market here in Jacksonville. This temporary landing site will give us a great boost in finding a permanent location in the next month or two.
There is so much more that I could write about how God is answering prayer and providing our needs, but I will have to do that at another time. Till then thanks for your prayers and support!
Melanie, do you have a blog?
It’s good to be here, but we wish we could be there for Christmas with everybody!
Glad you guys are there and doing well. We are missing you guys being here!
