Blessings and Request
- Bryce’s brother-in-law has been offered a job as a professor in the business department at Westmont College! He and their family (and us) are absolutely thrilled at the abundance of God’s blessing! He’ll submit his PhD here in Scotland in spring 2005 and they’ll probably head out to CA in July.
- My tutorial on Keats went well; I wasn’t nervous and the students were talkative. I felt like I talked too much but the prof sitting in on the lecture said she didn’t think so and that the students talked more with me than with her. Hopefully this is the start of lots of teaching for me!
- Bryce got an A on his essay on common grace although he didn’t feel incredibly confident about it.
- I just squeaked by with a distinction in my master’s degree.
- My mom sent us each a book and “Notting Hill” as a surprise in the mail.
- Doritos has been having Blockbuster movie rental give-away coupons in their bags of chips so we’ve been able to see a number of movies for free.
- The Lord has given us good friends.
- We, unfaithful sinners, are given grace abudantly based upon the perfect record of Jesus Christ.
On another note, please continue to pray for our finances and our flat situation. We’re going back to CA in January and have required that all repairs in our flat need to be fixed by the end of this month, or we’re moving out; we haven’t heard a date for when these repairs are to take place within the next two weeks and finding a new (inexpensive!) flat in the right area is something we don’t want to deal with in such a short space of time as Bryce runs up to finals and studying for his licensure exam. We know God will meet all our needs, but sometimes I still worry a bit.
