A teacher….just maybe!!!

It has been our desire since Bobbi Easton came to homeschool our kids in 2006 to have someone homeschool our kids every year while in the Philippines.  Having someone else teach the kids will free me, Shannon, up for language study and eventually ministry plus it keeps the kids at home with us instead of going away to boarding school.

Just this last July 4th, Jessica Wease left us to return back to Canada to attend Bible school.  She was a wonderful teacher for our kids and we will miss her very much.

Since February we have been praying for a new teacher for the kids for the 2010/2011 school year.

About 2 months ago we shared with leadership that Jessica would be leaving us and asked them to pray with us for a new teacher.  We were asked if we had contacted a young lady that was interested in coming last year but Jessica was already planned to come.

With life being busy, we didn’t get a chance to email this young lady.  But then 2 weeks later we received an email… It was from this very same young lady and she was asking if we had a teacher for this coming year yet!!!

From there we started communicating with her, our leadership here and the NTM office in Sanford, FL.  After several emails and phone calls everyone is in agreement that Dorothy would be a good fit for our family this coming school year!!!

This is very exciting!!!

It is not finalized yet as Dorothy still needs to fill out her application and raise some financial support to come.

Please pray with us and Dorothy.  Pray that things would be completed quickly.  Pray that she would be able to have enough people come behind her for support and to help with her plane ticket.

We don’t know when she will come but the new school year is just around the corner.
