But there is a whole bunch of it in philly! Life here has been pretty good lately. Work has been crazy the last couple weeks, but the overtime turns into a great paycheck :) It's good to pay off some of those bills before I leave.
So I should tell you a little bit about where I'm living now and how God provided this place. The lease for my apartment that I've been living in for the last 2 and a half years was up at the end of december. I really couldn't live there month by month, so I had to find a place to hang my hat just for the few months before I leave for Haiti. I had a few places I thought I could live, but two weeks before the end of my lease, they all fell through. So I sent out a mass email for anyone who wouldn't mind a roommate for 2 months to give me a call. Within 4 HOURS, a guy whom i had never met before called me. He was looking and had been praying for another roommate for just those couple months!! What an awesome provision by God! The rent is half of what I was paying before and the guys I live with have been a huge encouragement to me. Thank you so much Brian, Brian, Isaac, and Josh! A big thank you also to Jamie, Bindu, Liz, and Liz's parents for letting me store all my junk at their houses. Oh, and a shout out to my parents in Minnesota for looking after my cat. Holla!
I'm going to check on my support this week, so I'll let you all know when I do. Thanks for all your prayers.
