We have found a little one bedroom apartment in a farming community not far from Joplin. My father lived there for a few years until his passing in 2001. It's a really nice town and will put us closer to my brother as well. The rent is just over five hundred dollars. We received just enough help to pay the deposit and some of the first month's rent. Friends at church are paying for the moving truck and we will have friends from church loading the truck.
Such a blessing and we are looking forward to this new chapter. We, of course, have had to have a huge purge and some furniture will be donated to the DAV next week. Thankful for prayers too! They have helped everything fall into place. Quite honestly we could not have paid what the rent would be here. What we have been paying is a huge enough burden.
