Pray for safety today for two beautiful people who are helping S and her family move to the city next door.
It's pouring rain and they've got a pickup truck full of boxes pulling a trailer full of appliances and furniture.
It's a long drive from here to there and it's going to take two trips.
Thanks,
Ruth

Hi, again.
We found out a week ago that some of our friends, a family with young kids, is moving out and up to a small city north of here. They'll be getting a 3 bedroom house with Public Housing. We'll miss them, but we're really glad for them. The little one has been learning to count by practicing on cop cars driving through the parking lot.
Thank you for your prayers over the last few weeks. Things have been a bit more peaceful to end the summer and we're grateful for the rest.
As we head into winter, there are some questions that need to be answered for us to continue confidently. We're all dreading the idea of shivering through Dinner week after week like we did last year, and the cost of heating the large room is huge, made worse by the absence of insulation, the windows that are stuck open and the inefficient base board heaters. Makes sitting around to play euchre or play the piano really unattractive!
Where we're at right now, is face to face with a couple of significant decisions. Because of the nature of our relationship with the owner of the Motel, we've decided to keep the specifics vague (an oxymoron, I know).
But we really do covet your prayers.
Thanks.

- Please pray that a good door will open and that we'll find favour with those with whom we need to find favour.
- Pray that God will give us direction and guidance and show us what the best path is.
- Pray that we'll be wise, and "gentle as doves and wise as serpents" in dealing with tricky relationships.
- And continue to pray that the person we need to see come to fill a particular role will be brought our way.
- Pray for our new team members from St. John's Anglican, for energy and love and safety.
Thanks.
