The Orozco's Are Moving!! (For Real this Time!)

Yes. It's true. Sergio and I have found an apartment! We signed the papers this afternoon and will begin the move-in process either Tuesday night or Wednesday morning! Things on our end have been happening. It really does seem like there is a lot and I don't know where to start. I'll just say that it's been of week full of things we hadn't anticipated or expected.

Firstly, many of you know that we have been praying for Sergio as he was unemployed for a month and a half or so. Many of you know this because you were praying along with us. Thank you so much for your prayers. We serve such a great God who withholds no good thing! After many attempts to work at a community college with no responses, we were preparing for the possibility of broadening the job search to include non-teaching jobs. Last week, out of the blue, Sergio was contacted by the chair of the department of his old job and was offered several classes to teach. Yes, Sergio got a great job he didn't even apply for!

That began our apartment search. We took an afternoon to look at different apartments we saw on Craigslist. We didn't expect to find an apartment we liked right off the bat. But we did. It was a one bedroom apartment close to the seminary and my parents. We had pretty much set our minds on that apartment even though we had one more to see. When we got to the last building and walked into the one bedroom, we thought it was OK. Then the manager informed us that there was also a two bedroom unit available that was in our price range. We decided to take a look and lo' and behold: It was perfect for us! It's also perfectly situated in between the seminary and Sergio's work and only about ten minutes from my job.

 So basically, within a few days, the Lord provided a fantastic job for Sergio and a fantastic place to live for us.

 We move in next week. Sergio begins seminary tomorrow! Glory to our God!
