Found a Flat

I am going to try to keep up our blog on a more regular basis. I got some technical advice on how to edit different things on the blog so it will be a work in progress for a bit. Please bear with us. I'm learning little by little to handle all of our editing and posting. I'm coming to realize I'm not very techically saavy.

We have been looking for a flat for some time now. We are wanting to move out of St. Petersburg to save some money. We felt like the Lord released us to do so and we've been looking in a suburb called Lomonosov. We found one last week and it looks like we'll be moving at the end of March. It's a nice little 2 bedroom. It needs a bit of TLC but the owner has agreed to pay for the supplies to refresh the apartment. It needs it.

This is a huge blessing though because the rent is half of what we pay here in the city. Our prayer is to be a blessing to others here financially with any opportunity that God gives us. It has been really hard to do that when survival is the number one thing. We felt like we were just surviving there for a bit. It got rough but God never let us go hungry and we always had enough.

We are looking forward to the opporrtunity to make a connection at one of the orphanages there. We are still going to visit the one we have a connection with here close to the city. We feel like we are supposed to stay at this one. God knows where we will be the most effective.
