Perhaps Tampa

Mike and I will be traveling to Tampa, Florida next Thursday-Saturday. We will be visiting a Christian organization that houses at risk female teens. The teens are required to stay at the organization for 1 year where they will live, go to school, and be encouraged in their walk with God. We are visiting the organization because I am looking into a house parent/mentoring position at the organization. I would be responsible for 9 girls and would work with them day in and day out with the ultimate hope of seeing life change occur in the girls. We would receive room and board, although Mike would not be employed with the organization. Ideally, this would be a great opportunity for Mike to knock out his masters degree. He is actually more excited about this possibility than I would have thought, after all he did just finish his undergrad work a few months ago.

We would appreciate your prayers as we travel down there (about a 6 hour drive) and as we try and decide whether this opportunity would be a good fit for both Mike and I. We look forward to keeping you up to date as this journey unfolds.
