Update-July 31, 2011

Lumber Liquidators did give us 18 months to pay off the flooring with no interest so we are proceeding with that plan. We are anticipating installing the flooring in September. Meanwhile, stay tuned for more incredible news about the new car donation. We heard from the donor last week and they think it will happen in one or two months; truly a blessing. We are amazed. This will give us 11 more years (or more) of no automobile worries. Wow. Meanwhile, we have two precious little ones, 6 and 9, with us at least until the end of August. We will know more in August.

So Blessed,

FHM

July 25 update

Lumber Liquidators has budget constraints at present, preventing them from donating the flooring as considered. We have to wait at least three months and check again. We are praying for direction regarding timing and procurment of the flooring materials. Sometimes they have excellent sales and they have a six month no interest payment plan so we will see how we proceed. They do have excellent prices, but it all adds up. We will not need the flooring material until September when the crew comes so we have some time.


His timing, His ways, for His means,

July Update

We have made excellent progress with the electrical upgrade in the basement, thanks to a wonderful servant that goes to Church of the Redeemer. Church of the Redeemer's Iserve team wants to come out and add a ceiling light in two more spots (same guy), patch up the walls (drywall work), and paint the entire women's shelter living space. They are working with Lumber Liquidators to get the flooring donated, so let's pray they approve their application for a donation. The flooring needs to be a special moisture resistant floating floor for below grade applications on cement with a moisture proof barrier. They are waiting to hear from Lumber Liquidators about the flooring donation application to schedule the team to come out and finish the women's shelter space. We are hoping to be have that area ready for habitation by September.

Meanwhile, a major car manufacturer is so touched by all we are doing, asked how old our cars are and is in the process of working out an incredible deal on a brand new car! This is amazing as the car it will replace is 11 years old and needing a lot of repairs. We would pay 10% of the car. Our God is an awesome God!! When everything is approved we will advertise the amazingly generous donor and you won't believe who it is! The car in mind gets better gas mileage than a Prius!

Blessings to all and thank you for all your prayers for us!
David and Cheryl
