Our prayer needs

I was reading in the book of Philippians this morning - where Paul is talking about how much he thanks God for those who have supported him on the missionary journey...
and I thought of the incredible group of people that God has put into our lives this year to be a part of our "support team".

This small group of people who support us, those who pray with us, and those who love us - have gotten us through this year of preparation for the ministry that God has before us.

Thank you. So much. Words can not express the thanks we have for you.
----------------------

We do have some urgent requests that we would love for our team to be praying with us about.

THE FACTS:
Our program here in DC ends in August.

We fly to Springfield, MO, in August to be interviewed by the World Missions Board of the Assemblies of God - to be appointed as full time missionaries.

We need to move SOMEWHERE at the end of August.

We will be itinerating and raising our budget (for 4 years of service) during the months of September - May. We will mostly be speaking in churches in Arkansas each Sunday during this time.

We have no idea where God wants us to live during this season of budget raising (September - May). We expect to possibly be "stationed" out of Springfield, MO, come next summer.

THE NEED:
Please pray that God will open up a door for where HE wants us to live. Since we will be raising our budget for full time missionary service...we once again will not have "salary" for this year.
Finding a place to live that would be FREE or low cost would be a wonderful blessing.
Somewhere in Bentonville area or West Memphis would be the best - so that we could be close to grandparents during this time. Macy will be in first grade - so that is a consideration on where to live.
Please pray with us. We do not have the answers we need yet.
But we do know that God will provide and give direction.
---------------

We are taking 3 days: Today, Tomorrow, and Friday (July 22, 23, & 24) to pray SPECIFICALLY for God to provide direction in this area.
Would you please set aside a few moments each day to pray with us?
Thank you so much. We love you all.
