So we finally got the bathroom upstairs fully renovated last May. We have had a visitor that stayed with us (Rogelyn) for a couple of months. She was my brother Francis' sister in law, she was coming from Bermuda, also pregnant, single mom. In any case, we were glad to have our upstairs room done.
In June I heard from Joy Park, she was an old room mate in Vancouver, BC, a Korean International Student. While she was staying with me, she joined the church. Her elder missionary, then Elder Going, came back after mission to visit and they ended up together. Now with 6 kids later, coming to visit us in NC. They are taking their family on church history site road trip. Apparently they have been contemplating on where to move and upon coming to NC and attending our church on the first Sunday of July, James was really touched during the sacrament and felt the prompting that they should move to NC.
Our kids really had a blast together. They have 4 boys (16,12,10,8) and 2 girls (14,2). We also took them to Wilmington at the beach. All our first time there, it was really crowded, the parking near the shore was really expensive luckily they found a free spot.
After they left our house, I connected them with Brother Buchanan, a member of our ward who is a retired air craft mechanic. James is an aircraft mechanic. They have gotten in touch with each other. There were two members in our stake that bought a company at the air port and they hired James to work for them. The Buchanan's have been really helpful in this process. I can't believe the Parks visited us in July and 2 months later, their house in Idaho was put on sale and now they have moved to NC. What a faith and trust in the Lord they have to uproot their family and move because they felt the spirit.
