Today was a good day. A long day, but a good day. Poor Heather, she got bit on the foot by some sort of ant and two of her toes are all sworn up. She is great pain whenever she tries to walk. So, I stayed home today and tried to clean up the house, take care of the kids, and spend quality time with her. I took Jonny out for a short walk to the corner store to buy some soda to have a little fun at lunch. (I really needed a Pepsi. The kids love to "need" some too. : )
There was one really important job I needed to get finished before the work week started. I had to e-mail in a special request to Speed-The-Light, my Area Director, & my District Youth Director for help with funds to repair our STL SUV. It is not an easy thing for me to ask for help, especially not financial help. I hate it. Yet, I know that I have to swallow my pride and do what I must - for my family, for ministry here in Argentina.
So, I filled in the on line form, prayerfully and carefully wrote out the e-mails to everyone involved, double and triple checked them, and then sent them off with a prayer. We don't have the personal or business funds we need to repair the STL vehicle right now. We could still use reimbursement from the first set of repairs. We could use the funds quickly. We not only need to make the repairs, but we also have to travel to Chile after the start of the year - in just over a month - to go to a huge biannual missionary meeting. It is going to be expensive travel as it is a loooooong ways away, but it is required attendance. We have to go.
So, we are praying that God brings in the funds, some way, some how.
I would love for it to come through STL, but I don't know if it is possible. At least not fast enough.
We will see what God will do & then give Him the Thanks & Praise. : )
We'll keep you in the loop.
Good night and God bless -
Paz, bendiciones, y salud a todos -
