We got a buyer!

On April 22, we put our house on the market.  Just this past week we got our first offer (full-price) and accepted it!  So, we have a buyer and are moving forward with the sale.  Since we are doing a short sale, it is now time for us to wait to hear if the bank will approve the sale. 

Please pray the bank will accept this offer and approve the sale in a timely fashion.  We expect we won't hear anything from the bank for about a month.  Hopefully we will have a closing date sometime in early-mid August. 

We love our house, but know that it is time to move on.  We hope the new owners will take care of it and enjoy it as much as we have the last 3 years.

What we have been doing.

When raising support, what is it that you actually do?

I am glad you asked (or that I asked on your behalf...)

It is May 1, the 121st day of 2010. 

Ashley and I really started our support raising at the begining of 2010.  So, in the last 121 days this is what we have been up to:

Mailing information - over 350 pices of mail have been sent out
Calling - we have made 135 calls
Email - 130 emails sent by Mike or Ashley

(That is more than 1 call and 1 email everyday just pertaining to support raising)

All in all we have been doing a lot in order to go to Honduras.  Just this week I booked our flights for one of our trainings this summer! 

PS.  If anyone is interested, our house is now on the market.  :)
