Milestones - Transitions - Special Thanks

The clock is ticking. Three weeks from now, I'm scheduled to land in Brussels, Belgium...then on to my new home and ministry in Yaounde, Cameroon.

THANK YOU Mr. Michel Machado, Marsha Hanshew, Bonita Slaymaker, and Diane Beam (+ others) for upholding me in the battle to pack up and clean out my condo.  Several came day after day, many long hours...forever appreciated. Could not have done it without you all!
Like Moses of old, friends hold up my hands.
Thanks for nudging me on when I was 
exhausted mentally and physically.

We experience fruit of our labors- empty space!

My things finally are all cleared out of condo. In July some supplies went to World Orphans in Ethiopia. Ministry resources are being sorted by Diane to go to Paraguay missionary Norberto Kurrle via work camp folks next year.

Praying for speed and discernment in pruning remaining resources / multitudes of files, wisdom in locating new homes and a little bit of free storage space.
