So today I got confirmation that we have our first monthly donor to our account. Well at least one that has setup automatic donations. It was such a blessing to get that email and see that someone is investing in our journey. Others have given lump sums and we have received about $1000 dollars over the last month or so. However seeing their willingness to say they'll give for the next 12 months was a great lift to our spirits.
For the past couple of months, my boss has really been working to see if I would be able to work part-time while in Iraq. He's contacted IT, HR and a few managers. All seemed to be moving along and we were getting nods from everyone. THEN... today at about 3:30p, he called to say he heard from our Immigration & Legal/Global Trade Compliance Group. Apparently there's some concern about employees working from Iraq - something to do with software security and feds thinking we are now doing business in Iraq. I may call the guy tomorrow to get the scoop firsthand. But for now it appears that will not be an option. The continued employment, plus the income, would have been a great help.
So we continue to trust in the Lord to provide for this mission that we feel He has called us to. Please pray with us as we make decisions over the next few weeks - housing, pet care, fund raising, etc.
