Home Sweet Home

Hats off to Rufina! She has been diligently looking around Bontoc to find a place for us to land when we arrive. Her efforts have paid off. Our prayers have been answered. A great big THANK YOU! to Rufina and all who have been praying for our housing need in Bontoc. Arrangements have been made for us to live in the second floor of the house pictured below. (The first floor is a bakery, yummm!)

Looking from the street.

This is truly a blessing. It is located between the YWAM base and the market. It seems like a very good location for us.

This is where we will eat our rice.


The laundry room


Looking out the window. The open areas seen in this picture and the first picture are rice paddies.


The rent is half what the previous place we had been looking at. Now if only I can keep from spending the other half at the bakery each month.


We are very thankful that the Lord has answered this prayer. It is also a great blessing to be able to join friends at an established ministry.



Grace,


Tom

  1. So thankful to hear you have a place to live! How exciting for all of you. About the bakery..if it was me that's here my rent balance would end up!

    Can't wait to hear the girls blog. I would have suggested a name, but my creative juices have been sucked dry.
