My location is a blessing from God. 

I've been living in East Stroudsburg Pa. since July of 2010. I lived in New York City mostly all my life. When I read the SOP and she said we should be living in the country, I had to pray. 

My husband is an architect and he was the sole provider for many years. He became unemployed in 2008 and God and I have been taking care of my family of eight. By the time I learned about country living there was no money to spare and at times no money for food. 

However, once we decided to believe that God would get us out of the city,  I received $5,000 to move, and He found us a house in 1 week!

The lord provided us with a huge house for the kids, and they play with deer that walk right past the window while we eat breakfast. What a blessing! 

It even had freshly planted fruit trees and some lot of vegetables growing in the yard. 

Praise God I'm so thankful. I still want to move further out into the mountains though. For right now, from where I am I can get to work in 90 minutes.

Brother Patrick, You are not going to believe this one. My husband was just offered a job at our church school! 

The principal/teacher is leaving and they are looking for a man to teach the 6th, 7th and 8th grades. 1) because the boys are little rowdy, and 2) they need someone good in math.

I'm in shock! I didn't see this one coming. He volunteers on Fridays to teach art class, but we never thought in our wildest dreams that they would ask him to teach! 

What a mighty God we serve!

Too many blessings have happened since we've stumbled onto this "present truth" message and believed. We got out of our cramped New York home into a beautiful country house. My kids go to a small Adventist school instead of public school, and my husband is about to get a job as an Adventist teacher! 

We got baptized as a family. We're vegetarian and eating healthy. We made new "present truth" friends! 

All this with no money! Praise the Lord! 

I'm going to study, Bye!
