Michels family news

This is an e-mail I sent out to just about everyone I know this evening.



Hi there friends & family!

It's with an elated but heavy heart that I share with you our latest news. We accepted an offer on our house over the weekend, yippeeeee!!! God is just so amazing, I was a teachers helper & worship leader last week for my church's VBS. When I had signed up to help I told them I could do it but depending on the moving thing. Well, we got our offer in the last hour of the last day of VBS, how cool is that! I guess God wanted me there, I had a great (and exausting) time & we had 8 kids come to Christ during the week.

So we are very excited but it's going to be hard to leave all our friends & church family here in Kittitas County. I have loved living here, both in Cle Elum & in Kittitas. Both great towns with nice folks in a beautiful area, this has been our home in every sense of the word for the past 5+ years. It's going to hurt to pull out the roots planted here, transplanting is always hard. But I know God has something great in store for us in our new home, & we will flourish before long.

If you are a believer in Christ, we covet your prayers - that everything will go as God wills it. Specifically, the inspection is Friday Aug 24 @ 10am Pacific time - pray that they don't find any problems & that what they want done is VERY INEXPENSIVE, we don't have any extra $$ right now! Also pray that we can find a house in Spokane asap so we won't be homeless for long :-) How about this, if we come to your mind in any way - pray!
If everything goes as planned, our closing date will be Sept 17

Love & blessings to you,
Alane, Chris & kids

So there you go, now the packing begins...as Bill the cat would say,aaarrrrrrrgggghhhhhh!
