Praises #158 - #169

#168- our friend and supporter, Chip, got a job! He says "I have been 100% restored to my position/title I hadat [my old job ] -- God certainly engineered circumstance after circumstance to protect me to be in a position to receive the offer and accept the position. (If the other bank had not delayed, I'd be there now.) Again, I was down to hours before Iwould have had to accept a lesser position if I had not received thewritten offer from [name of bank] Tuesday afternoon."

#167 - Got a positive answer to an important request.
#166 - We had a really nice overnight with Joy & Ricky at the beach. We had wanted to go one more time with them (just us) before she graduates and there was barely a weekend available from now until graduation (May 30th)! The weather was perfect and we had no problems traveling.
#165 - We had a good meeting of AIS-Haiti. We received 6 proposals from regional groups for their ministry plans for the year.
#164- Richard and Ronald William (coach at Maranatha & on our board) went to Leogane to meet with the regional committee' there. They even have a woman on their committee. They had a done a good job on their plan for the year and together they made a plan to raise 50% of the funds needed.
# 163- Cheri Kay got passports & visas for her adopted children.
#162 We found out who the mysterious donation was from--a very generous friend of our co-workers whom we met when she came here to Haiti last year to volunteer her time at our CrossWorld retreat. We're so humbled that she and her husband would remember us and our ministry and give so generously.
#161 For the past three months we have received record amounts in donations in spite of the financial difficulties in the US!
#160 - We were praying for direction for Joy as far as colleges and we got a "no" on Wheaton, even though they haven't accepted or denied her yet. She went to visit and it was obvious it was not for her. Noes are answers too. :)
#159 - Joy had a good trip to Chicago and got back safely.
#158 We received a $1000 donation from a "mystery" donor! (The record shows the company name, but we don't recognize it)
