Apartment Hunting…
We have been actively searching for our next apartment on the coast. Before we share those adventures, we would like to say due to shifting ministry responsibilities, the city in which we will be living has changed slightly. We have been saying for years we would be living in Viña del Mar because this is where CEMIPRE, the ministry center to the blind is located. In reality, we will actually be living in the city just north, Concón. The church plant, La Trinidad Concón, in which we will be involved is located here. We and our team thought it would make more sense to be closer to the church because so many activities are in the evening. We will commute to Viña during normal ministry (daytime) hours. This way our transportation challenges (no car) would be easier to handle. We just wanted to clarify as we mention Concón repeatedly that no one would be left thinking, “I thought they said they would be in Viña”.
Two weeks ago our family traveled to Concón to begin our search for an apartment. This has proven to be much more difficult than we thought it would be. We had found three different locations that would have all been wonderful for our family. Unfortunately, for different reasons they have all fallen through. Some of it our own decisions and some on a few people dealing a bit underhanded. We don’t really want to dwell on the details too much and ruin our witness with negativity and stand in our own bad attitude. But, we’d rather share that God has reminded us yet again, that He and He alone is in control. We rejoice in this and ask that you would please continue to pray for us and our next home. Truthfully, none of those apartments that fell through gave us the strong feeling of - this is the place.
