Positions Available!

Positions Available!

I am SO EXCITED to have all of the funding in place to hire MY OWN staff for Nathaniel and our families needs, but at the same time I am a bit nervous about finding the RIGHT people to hire! Really nervous! The finding came through close to 2 weeks ago. I wrote the ad last week. After MUCH prayer about HOW to advertise the positions, I am finally posting this... HERE! :)

You might think I am crazy, but I have thought and thought about this. I want the information out there, but don't want ten million crazies applying either, so I post it here, and pray that the Lord directs the right people here! I will also be looking for people advertising that they are available (after all they are serious enough to put themselves out there..) and directing them here to find out more about us. This also gives people who know us a chance to share with those they know...Good idea? I guess we will see!

So without further to do....
