My God Will Meet All Your Needs

As we get closer to our departure date, we get increasingly more excited about this new adventure we are going to be starting in just over 2 months!  We have been busy beginning to pack up our life in Upland and our little house on Bragg Avenue.  It’s bittersweet to pack things away…realizing how soon we are leaving and how soon we will have to say goodbye to so many loved ones.  But we are so excited about what is to come, how we will grow, how we will be challenged, and how God will use us!

We were finally able to purchase our plane tickets and will be flying out of Ft Wayne on Saturday morning, August 11^th.  After about 22 hours of travel, we will land in Busan on Sunday night their time.  We then will have just over a week to get adjusted to the time zone and to start to get a feel for our new city.  The first day of school for new teachers is August 20^th.  We are both excited about this date because now we are both going to be teaching full time at BFS!

I (Megan) was recently offered the position of full-time Nursery teacher! So I will be spending my days teaching a class of 3 year olds – yes teaching, not babysitting!  I will actually be teaching them math, phonics, some science and social studies, as well as crafts, PE, and yoga.  Yes, I will be teaching yoga, which will be very interesting since I don’t even do yoga myself.  Thank you, YouTube for having such a huge selection of videos that I can watch and then potentially mimic. 

This job is such a blessing!  I had just been telling Justin how I wished I knew what I would be doing there.  I knew I would have some sort of job, I just didn’t know what.  The very next morning, I received an email from the principal about this job for me!  It is the same pay as Justin and I will receive all the same benefits!  Thank you, Lord, for providing even more for us than we imagined!

By the way, there were 17 exclamation points in the last pots, in case you counted. :)
