Well I am creeping a little closer to my dream job. We have at least one yes to our board of directors, and possibly the other two by now also. Once they get into place, then I can be hired and start officially raising support. Mike told me that I should start unofficially raising support now.
We have projects galore. Of course we have the three houses in Bourban that went to Oz in October that we are working on. I was helping out with a Habitat house last week. I am project coordinator for a house for South Bend's Rebuilding Together/ Christmas in April on April 12th. (Anybody interested in helping, contact me.) Then the counseling Pastor at our church has a friend in New Orleans who had damage to a house from Katrina is still waiting to get it finished. So it looks like we might be going to New Orleans the week of May 25th to do that. (Again if anyone is interested, contact me.) We also Will be working with the city of Mishawalka on houses June 12th to 16th, and August 7-11. We may also be doing one in July or Sept, and one in October.
I do not know if anyone realizes how exciting this is for me! I have always enjoyed working with building. I also love to teach, and a lot of this combines both aspects. In some jobs we will be doing the work, in others we will be supervising volunteers. I just think this is what God has designed me for.
Gonna go, it is late and 4a goes around awful quick! Bye
