Prayer Request
Posted: Sat Sep 01, 2018 7:42 am
Dear friends,
I learned on Thursday that we were not awarded a grant to continue our current drug prevention programming. Usually the feds send a "you're not being funded" letter with your grant score and suggestions before the winners are announced. For some reason that didn't happen this time. Instead, my staff and I learned of it while at a national conference in Boston. We still haven't received a letter with the details... which is so very wrong. So, in less than a month my two staff and I might be looking for jobs. I am still in shock. Will be meeting with my boss on Tuesday to see what can be salvaged... and check out other grant options.
In the meantime, would appreciate your prayers. I know that God will see us through this as he has in the past. But for now, I am praying for His comfort and encouragement as we figure out next steps.
And... I am thankful for my stamping which always provides therapeutic stress relief. I'm heading to my craft room to work on Golda's "Night Sky" challenge and develop my challenges for next week. I look forward to losing myself in creating.
