Thanks

It looks like the abbey has found it's next landing pad. We've put in application for a 2500 sq ft house about 15 minutes from our current location. It is in Richardson, not too far north of Dallas proper (where our work in the arts takes place) and not too far south of Mars Hill's current gathering locations.

There are 2 bedrooms downstairs where Jefe and Nocho will stay and 2 more upstairs where the abbess, our baby and I will stay.

There are 2 living areas downstairs. One will be the "everyone" place for music, tv (grr), instruments, computers, etc. The other will be the "quiet" space for prayer, retreat, solitude, reading and the like.

Upstairs there is a 3rd living area that will start out as a living area/play room for Aidan and will double as a hospitality room for travellers and guests. If you need a place to crash after August, make sure to touch base because that is what the room is for. Or, if you know someone who is coming through town and would rather save the $ than stay in a hotel, send them our way.

We will hear back today or tomorrow wether the application is accepted. Will keep posted.

Thanks to God who hears our prayers and knows, better than we do, the desires of our hearts.

May he bring you home rejoicing at the wonders he has shown you.
May he bring you home rejoicing once again into our doors.
