What's Next?
Many of you may recall our last newsletter and our thoughts of going to China. Well, our meeting with both an in country worker and the district recruiter went extremely well and we feel bathed in prayer. However, God has brought another very interesting opportunity to us.

As we continued to discuss with others the possibility of going to China with ELIC we had the opportunity to have lunch with Paul Borthwick (former missions pastor at Grace Chapel) in mid-July. We discussed our life journey and asked for suggestions on what made the most sense for Tim as he continued to pursue making the transition to a full-time ministry position. Paul recommended that Tim contact two missions pastors that had made the transition from marketplace to ministry. In contacting one of the missions pastors in late July and discussing Tim’s background he mentioned that World Team (missions organization – www.worldteam.org) was looking for a U.S. Sending Country Director. He thought that Tim’s background was a good match, and recommended that Tim contact World Team, which is located in Warrington, PA (just north of Philadelphia).

In an initial conversation in late July with World Team they invited him to be one of 6-8 people to submit an application packet for the position. After submitting all the requested information by August 4th, World Team contacted us in mid-August about the possibility of interviewing with World Team on Friday August 29th before we went to Lancaster for Labor Day weekend.

Please pray for discernment and wisdom as both sides consider if this is a good match. If you would like to get prayer updates please send us an email back and we will add you to a list to get short prayer updates as things move forward. China is not totally out of the picture, but we are being open to the opportunities that are brought our way.

Check Out Our New Website!
We have launched a new website that will hopefully aid us as we try to keep in contact with an ever increasing number of people. Check it out at www.tcweaver1.com. We have a blog there as well that we plan on updating at least weekly! We love to hear what's going on in your lives as well. Email us any time at either tim@tcweaver1.com or candy@tcweaver1.com.

Prayer Partners Needed
We have at different times tried to create an ongoing group of people that would be willing to pray for us on an ongoing basis.
