In the midst of the end of year Christmas preparations, we are renovating and moving house! The papers are not yet officially signed, but we have taken the risk of tearing off old wallpaper and preparing new walls ready to accommodate the tastes of 2 teenage boys and one teenage girl. To be honest, the other rooms are to accommodate the tastes (and current furniture) of a 50 year old missionary pastor's wife who's a bit tired of putting up with other people's tastes and economic management of her living space.
This is a beautiful and solid house with it's own closed in garden. Centrally located and with extra space on the second floor and a potential attic floor to be exploited, the Lord willing. It has the potential to be a major asset in ministry as well as being a lovely home to a pastoral family.
Please pray for a creative spirit in preparing a welcoming home with the material we have. Pray for the physical energy we need to get this done. We are such desk-bound workers we are finding it hard on our bodies! We thank the Lord so much for willing helpers in our church who have already done a great amount.
Pray the church's property in a nearby village will be sold so the purchase of this house will be neatly sown up.
We are right next to a bank! Where will we place our security???
