Two weeks and counting

Two weeks and 1 day till we board an airplane with all we can stuff into 4 bags. Suddenly things are starting to get really real so I thought I would take a quick few minutes to catch you up with where we are at so far. As many of you know on August 28^th I quit my job of 9 years at Hertz Equipment Rental. Having this time has been a huge blessing for which it has allowed me a little time to just wrap my head around the idea of not going to a 40+ hr a week job but now it is time to transition into a different , definitely more out of my comfort zone type of work. I knew I needed to get with people and tell my story of what God was doing with us as a family. How was I going to do this? All I had to do was be led by the Lord and He would open the doors. I have had more opportunities in the last two weeks to tell people about what God is doing through us and Junglemaster Ministries it is unbelievable. On top of the one on one opportunity;  we have also had the opportunity to get in front of two churches and tell them about the journey. Thank you to Christ Community Church and Cornerstone Church for the opportunity and the support.
Now onto the next hurdle, our house, it still has not sold and we are now in the transition of figuring out the possibility of renting it. Wow, another spot we will get to see what God will do!  I’m trying not to get  hung up on this one and I seriously can hear God saying patience and trust Joel, Patience and trust, my ways not yours.  So, all I ask in this area is for lots of prayer, especially for guidance.

They continue to make progress on the house in Nauta, Peru (where we will be living). If you don’t remember what the house looks like take a look back at older posts and we have pictures of it there.
Here are the completed projects:
In ground concrete cistern for water storage, we will collect rain water off the roof to fill this, that the water will be pumped from this to a smaller elevated storage tank so we will have water pressure inside the house (yeah bonus running water)
Security wall around perimeter to keep things safe while we are traveling up river
Government electricity hooked up to house (another bonus electricity for fans)

For those of you who have asked for specific things that we will be buying; here is a list of items and pricing in U.S dollars of the things we are going to need to purchase as soon as we get there:
Refrigerator $490.00
Oven range $325.00

 If you would like to help with these items you can use the link to the Junglemaster  webpage and click Donate or send a check with McGee Peru support in the memo section to Junglemaster Ministries and you will find the address on our blog.

Thank you to everyone who is praying for us and for all the encouragement and support we have received.
