Moving East
By Tim | October 19, 2007
We’re moving again! Next week the Executive Committee of the Chesapeake Conference of Seventh-day Adventists will meet. One item on their agenda will be to officially approve transferring me to become the pastor of the Beacon of Light Seventh-day Adventist Company and pastoral intern (eventually transitioning to become the pastor) at the Park Seventh-day Adventist Church in Salisbury on Maryland’s Eastern Shore.
Joy and I have spent the week on the Delmarva Peninsula (includes the state of Delaware and the Eastern Shore areas of Maryland and Virginia, hence the name “Delmarva”). Monday night we met with the boards of both congregations (with Elder Rob Vandeman, the president of the Conference introducing us). The congregations are different, but both meetings went well.
We spent most of the rest of our time trying to look for a house to rent. We believe we’ve found one in the town of Snow Hill. It has four (4) bedrooms, 1 full bath, 1 half bath, and the master bathroom is a 3/4 bath (shower, but no bath). There is an attached 2-car garage (small for a 2-car, but we’ll be able to either park both cars in the garage, or use 1 side for bicycles, lawn mower, etc.) It has a full basement that’s divided into two rooms. The washer, dryer, and dishwasher are all brand new. In short, we fell in love with the house immediately, and the rent is very good. The landlady will be checking our references, then we’ll have to go back over next week to sign the lease, etc.
Click on the small picture to see a slide show with the photos I took. If you click the big “i” in the middle of the slide show, you’ll see the captions. If you don’t see the “i” or the captions, move your mouse toward the middle of the photo and it should appear (at least using Firefox 2.0.0.7 or Internet Explorer 7).
Update: We will be going over Monday afternoon to sign the lease — this will be our new home in under two weeks!
