In a few minutes, a few individuals will be coming over and we will work on packing the boxes into the moving van. We will then wait for the piano to get here from Illinois and load that in. To close out the evening, we will arrange the house to make tomorrow's loading a little easier.
Friday will be a long day. We will spend most of the day / afternoon packing the moving van and cleaning the house. In the evening, we will go to the closing program of VBS - more on that in a later post. After the closing program, we will have a going away party at one of the youth leaders house and then crash there.
On Saturday morning, we will drive the 7 hours to our new house and then spend the next X unpacking the moving van and getting the items in the correct room.
On Sunday, we have church, work on the house in the afternoon and first youth sunday evening. Thus, that is what the next 72 hours will be bringing for us.
I hope that the painting and carpeting will be in place when we arrive. We will see. Prayers would be greatly appreciative as we pack up, say our last good-byes, move and begin the new ministry with a wonderful church.

Hey there... I am glad that I am able to help you guys out... I promise that we will come a visit you... praying that everything goes well the next few days...
Saying prayers for ya'll and can't wait to hear more of your new place. Prayers for the kids to make this transition. Prayers for you in finding a new car.
I pray that you have a safe trip and I do not know if Peanut and I will make it to the party as our games last night got rained out and we now play tonight in the middle of the party. If we get done before it is over we will stop by.
I hope that you have a stress free weekend unloading and that everything is as you need it to be.
Praying for your family to unpack safely and get settled into your new home quickly. Also for your new ministry and the families whose lives you and Grace will touch.
Thanks for the prayers. They were greatly appreciative.
