A Change in Plans

Dear Friends in Christ -

So . . . Ed and I are not going to Turkey this Fall. While we would have loved to go, things just didn't fall into place easily, and we took that as a sign that this is just not the time. While we will miss having this adventure with our friends Jim and Anne, we look forward to the new possibilities and opportunities that unscheduled vacation time offers. I don't know about you, but for us an unscheduled week (with my parents here to watch the kids!) is almost too amazing to believe.

The temptation, of course, is to fill up the time. Already, we can think of 10 things that we could do and 10 things that we "should" do. But Ed and I have pledged to each other to listen and wait.

Now I'm off to my retreat, a weeklong meeting with God. I'm sure He'll have some things to say, and I can't wait to hear them - and to come home and share them with you.
Please pray for me as I pray blessings upon you.
Faithfully yours,
Janet+
