Thanks be to God, I begin a new job this Thursday, 7/16. It's with a good law firm located downtown and I'm familiar with some of the people there. I had actually interviewed with them a couple of years ago and was all but promised a job, but then the partners decided they really didn't need to hire another paralegal yet. They just had a paralegal leave and when they saw my resume, which I sent out yesterday, they called right away since they already knew me. :-)
God's timing is always perfect!

Update
FURNITURE. Well, another piece of furniture exited my front door this evening, and more cash went into my pocket. There are only a few more furniture items to sell, but lots of "stuff" left. I need to have a garage sale, so I'm praying someone will volunteer their garage/drive way for this - soon. Any volunteers?
CONDO. The couple that wanted to rent my condo have changed their mind, so I now need to list it with a property management company. I had prayed about this and believe this is what the Lord's best is in this situation. If the couple had rented it, I wouldn't have anyone looking after it or taking care of things if anything went wrong, or if for some reason they were unable to pay the rent. And now I don't have to move so quickly. Thank you for your hand in this, Lord!
I DO have a place to live now once my condo is rented. A dear friend has invited me to come live were her until I leave for Uganda. Again, thank you Lord!
CATS. My two boys need a good home, though. Please be praying for a loving home for them, and let me know if you are interested or if you know of anyone who might want them.
JOB. Oh yeah, almost forgot. When I asked to cut back on my hours at work, my immediate supervisor approved, but HR cut me back to zero! So, I'm looking for a job, preferably temporary or part time so that I can continue preparing for Uganda. I applied for two positions through Monster today. Please pray for the right job to come along - soon.
Thank you for your prayers and for partnering with me in this exciting journey!
In Christ,
Susan

UPDATE
After some long delays, it's now full speed ahead with my preparations to go to Uganda, and things have been happening quickly.
CONDO RENTED! In my last post I asked for prayer in deciding which property management company will handle my condo and that a long term resident will rent it. Well, God always gives us more thant we ask! A couple I know was looking for a place and they've decided to rent my condo for a minimum of two years. Hallelujah! This arrangement will also save the 10% fee that a management company charges per month. Thank you God!
HOME FOR CATS & MOVING. Of course, this means that I need to find a place to live in just a few weeks. Which alsomeans taking care of my remaining furniture, going through "stuff" to get rid of, selling morestuff (click on the link to my blog), etc., etc., etc. I also need to find a home for my two male, indoor cats - quickly. If this happens it will open up more options for where to live. Please pray that the Lord will provide a good, loving home for them. They are 7 and 8 years old and have been together for 6 1/2 years, so they really need to stay together.
NEED A JOB! So, I guess it's good, for now, that when I asked to cut back my hours at work, as mentioned in my last post, the firm cut me back to 0 hours! I now have time to tackle getting ready to move. However, I do need to find work beginning August 1st. Please pray for the Lord's provision.
LOCATION FOR GARAGE SALE. I still have lots to sell, so I need to have a garage sale this mnth (July). However, since garage sales are not allowed in my condo community, I need to find a place to have it. It would be a huge help if someone would offer their driveway / garage for this.
FUND RAISING. My next step is to contact the clergy I met at the innaugural provincial assembly for the new Anglican Church in North America and arrange to come speak at their churches. Please pray that many visits will be arranged and that they will bear much fruit toward the support that needs to be raised before I can head off to do missions in Uganda.
