On Friday we got the word that we'd been assigned to Whyalla in South Australia. We don't know a lot of the nitty gritty of when Tim will start etc but we know that he'll be the parish Pastor for Whyalla, Port Augusta and Wilmington. We had a sneaking suspicion...well Tim did that Whyalla might be where we'd go...after our interview and the questions we were asked.
It's slowly sinking in and I am starting to feel excited about it.
Some things we have found out/ know so far
Whyalla is about 400kms from Adelaide.
There is a Spotlight there (Thanks Clare for pointing that out as a pro:)
The house we will be living in is quite large (so plenty of room for visitors) and has a dishwasher!!! and air conditioning! AND A BATH!!! and a heck of a lot more cleaning :) but that will be OK!
There's probably going to be work opportunities for me! Which is exciting and a relief!
There a still a couple of guys in Tim's class who are waiting to hear, so if you're a person who prays please think of them in your prayers at this time.
The other places where Tim's classmates are going are: Tabor Victoria, Brinkworth SA, Coonalpyn SA, Alice Springs NT...and us to Whyalla!
And now the fun of some belated spring cleaning for the move begins! :)
Very exciting news! Blessings.
