"If our devotion is to the cause of humanity, we will be quickly defeated and broken-hearted, since we will often be confronted with a great deal of ingratitude from other people. But if we are motivated by our love for God, no amount of ingratitude will be able to hinder us from serving one another."

Dates but Not Details

I only have time to give you solid dates, but no time to write details about how we are all doing.  Suffice it to say that God is in the midst of all we are doing and feeling.  I'm praising Him for that.  Yes, we are deeply grieved to leave.  We are overwhelmed with all the little petty details of little or great importance that need to be tended to before leaving.  However, we are trusting in Him, who is sending us, to go before us and prioritize each of our days.  Just like we should live every other day, for that matter...

Settlement on our NC house is scheduled for 10/28.  Shawn signed a lease on a rental house in Harrisburg just this week!  We are leaving NC on 10/28.  (Our lease on PA house begins 10/15.)  Shawn will still be traveling to PA for this and that.  We are extremely busy, as you can imagine, packing and purging and taking care of the paperwork trails that come from such a move.

That's all for now!
