Lisa Bills, BSW.... oh-dear! I'm a professional now!

Well, after 2  1/2 months of waiting to start with Bethany Christian Services, I had my first training yesterday. I thought I was going in to train for my part-time position that they offered me originally, but then I found out that the want me on FULL-TIME!

Not only that, but I'm going to be an actual Caseworker in their Adoptions department.... meaning I have my own laptop, work cell, and MY OWN OFFICE!!!!!!!!!!

I'm feeling so blessed by what God has done in our lives. As much as I continue to hate living in PA, I know that there are great things happening here for us that would have never happened in Michigan. Jim and I have been praying for a job that would offer us more money, better hours and insurance, and this has all of it! I'll be mostly be doing 9-5 work with a couple evenings, but it's so awesome!

I'm scared out of my mind that now I'm an actual professional, doing what I wanted to do all along, and that there's no going back now!

 

Please pray that this job will go well for me and that our lives here in PA will continue to be blessed so that we  can glorify our God and King!

Sickened: The Memoir of a Munchausen by Proxy Childhood

The series that we are going through at our church is all about "Believe". We need to have faith that God will work everything out for the best in his timing. It's so easy in theory, but when it really comes down to it, we are impatient human beings who want things right now.

It took a while, but God is revealing some great things to Jim and I. I got a second part-time job working for Bethany Christian Services, Seneca is back in school again so Jim is driving bus again, and our church is so unbelievably generous that we have been blessed in so many ways!

I'm not sure where all this is going to lead Jim and I in the future, but we're faithful that God will continue to reveal his blessings to us.

Looking for a new job... SO Frustrating!

Seneca Valley is on strike, so Jim's not currently working as a bus driver...

Youth Ministry is awesome!

Jim's mom's bypass surgery went well and she's home and healing!

Wow-I haven't updated in a while!

Just got back from Jesi and George's wedding a couple days ago in Michigan. Jim and I agreed-it was the most beautiful ceremony and reception that we've ever been to. It was gorgeous, but simple and the reception was a TON of fun!

In our personal life, we've been busy with our jobs. I'm already getting frustrated with mine (mostly with my boss changing my caseload at the last minute). We're working hard on the youth ministry stuff and Jim's finally driving the school bus all by himself.
Things are getting better and, although I was an absolute emotional wreck all weekend, I am happy with how things are going now.

 

thats enough of an update for now. God bless!
