January 14, 2008--Candidating opportunity

I am so stinkin' excited! The church that Erick applied for that I mentioned in my last post contacted us already, and we're supposed to go down there Wednesday to meet the Chairman of the Board and his wife and have an interview! He actually e-mailed last night, and then called me just about an hour ago. I've been dancing around the house for the last hour and the kids think I'm out of my mind. They want to arrange a time for him to come candidate. The man I talked to seems really nice. He was telling us how one of the other board members had been saying all along that the next pastor should have three children. They looked at several candidates that had no children, some that had one, and one that had two, but when they saw our picture they said, "Woah!" He said they love children, and they have a big rope swing behind the church. It's just a country church, way out in the middle of nowhere. It sounds so wonderful it's hard to believe. They even pay moving expenses! I'm just overwhelmed. Please pray that if this is where we are supposed to be that we will be voted in. If not, pray that God shows us where we are supposed to go. I want God's will more than anything, and as much as right now I want this to be God's will, if it's not, I would rather find where God's will is and go there.
