Greetings,
All the last sessions admin is done now keeping busy preparing for next sessions by listening to 'The New Birth.' 'The New Birth' with Dr. Stephen Lawson of Ligonier Ministries will be the teaching for the first part of the new Discipleship session starting May 22nd.
Keeping in touch with the chaplains at both facilities regarding gate passes and new students counts for the ordering of books for Malachi Dads class.
A continued thanks for your prayers regarding my wife Michelle's employment situation but thus far it is still not God's will to have Michelle remained employed at her current employer of 14 years. She is now on leave without pay until May 31st. She is still receiving benefits until then.
She is investigating COBRA, unemployment and new opportunities and though she has her name submitted with several recruiters a match has not yet been met. Michelle and I, continue to pray and trust God.
We ask for your continued prayer that it yet may still be God's will to have Michelle placed with a new client within the next 30 days.
Thank you.
To Him be the glory!
