Hello All,
We are trying to move foward with the fundraising and finding someone to rent our home.
We have sent out over 200 letters to family and friends asking for support. It's a great opportunity for people to "live through us vicariously" in our trip! Please pray that we will be successful. We plan on visiting some churches of friends and family to present what we are doing and hopefully raise some support that way too.
We are also getting into the thick of things with getting the house rented. Jullie has lost 2 weeks with being in the hopital and recovering. So, she is hitting the pavement this week to talk to real estate/property management people. Please pray that that will also be successful.
Set back for the week: The home we had arranged for Doodle is no longer available. Please pray that we will find a good home for her while we are gone.
I am adding a video of the house on the "house for rent" tab today. You can go and see what the inside of the house looks like.
I can not believe that it is almost October. Time is moving rather quickly! The trees here are looking beautiful! But, that means January is coming up fast. We need your prayers please. I am trying to not stress knowing that God has it all worked out. I am not very good at that!
Take Care,
Jullie T.

We Have an EMI Account Number!
We finally have an EMI account number and can move forward with our fund raising - Yea!
I will put a "Donate" heading at the top of the page so that people can link directly to EMI. We are so thankful that our Navy pension will be going to support us on this, God's mission. But we do need additional monthly support in order to make this happen. We have about 3 months left before we leave in January, so we need to let this be in God's hands to make it happen. Jim is going to drop most of the incoming AHC jobs (at least down to 2 days a week) and devote 3 days a week to fundraising.
Please pray for us and if you feel lead, go to the "Donate" page to help us financially.
This week has been tough for other reasons. Jullie had a small surgical procedure that went wrong and is now layed up for a while. Please pray for quick healing so that she will be back in the "running" soon!

Our Next Biggest Hurdle
Things are moving forward a bit. We had a successful yard sale last Thurs and Friday (thank you JC and Sandy for use of your yard)! Trevor got his shots last week (ouch)! Timothy and Sallie go for their's this week - here come the tears. School starts this week also. I can not believe that is already here!
But, what I really need to move on is getting the house for rent. By the end of the week, I will have a video posted of the inside of the house (it is way to messy right now to take that video)! Then I will be going to every agency I can find to let them know what I have. Please pray that this will happen with in the next 2 weeks so that we can actually start looking for the wonderful family that will be moving in here. I know they are out there, and God knows it too. I sometimes think He is up there laughing at the way I worry about these things, knowing that He has it all figured out and I will realize that at some point.
Please pray for us this week that we will get the things done to move forward in renting the house.
Thank you for all your love and support!
