Nothing yet…

The meeting didn’t take place today. It’s been resceduled for tomorrow.
We’re praying for clear news about her decision and that we might know that tomorrow.

Please pray for her.  I know this is very difficult for her.  Please pray for her peace in whatever she decides.  Please know Chris and I will also have peace, because we know it is in the Lord’s hands.
