"Wait for the Lord; be STRONG and COURAGEOUS, and WAIT for the Lord" Psalm 27:14

It's been about a month since my last post...and a LOT has happened! I am sure you all remember about the major decisions that were in front of me...should I return to Italy on STINT or on staff this year or wait two years until I finish my teaching certification? Should I pursue the teaching certification?

Well, I knew that this answer was only going to come from the Lord, and so I started praying to the Lord on what I should do, and meditating on Psalm 27:14 - waiting for the Lord, for Him to direct my path, and making my next step clear to me. TWO DAYS later, I got a call from Elsik High School. They had two positions open for a science teacher, one for 10th and 11th grade, and one for 9th grade. The next morning I went in for the interview. That afternoon the assistant principal for the 9th grade center called me back and offered me the job!!!!! TALK ABOUT GOD ANSWERING PRAYERS!!!!!!! You are now looking at Elsik High School's new 9th grade Integrated Physics and Chemistry Science teacher!! Go Rams! I have been teaching there for two weeks now and have truly been enjoying it!

Thank you all who have been praying for me!! You don't know how much it means to me!

PRAYER REQUEST:
The classes for the certification program have also begun. These next two months will be quite intense for me as along with teaching, I have the certification classes, and studying for the content exam that I will be taking on February 24th. MUCH, much, prayer is needed! I want to be a successful and effective teacher as well as finish strong with these classes and do well on this exam. I pray that the Lord will continue to give me the endurance and strength to do well during these two months. Please continue to be praying for me!
