Last time we chatted about what was up at our place,
I told you all that David was going to enlist in the Army.
While he has a high regard for the military and still has dreams of joining one day,
we worry about the extended amounts of time he would spend away from
home and the toll that would take on Ethan.
We've come such a long way with him and having a
consistent father figure/spiritual leader is a MAJOR contributing factor in his success.
David's dream after the military was to sign on with a local police force
and serve our community through local
law enforcement.
We're praising the Lord for the opportunity that we have stumbled across recently.
Our local community college offers a program/employment opportunity for men and women, who have no previous law enforcement experience, to work for the department while going through the academy and other training sessions that they are required.
We put David's resume and application in online and now we're hoping and praying he'll get hired on and be able to go through the academy!
Today we got the first piece of good news, the Applicant Personal History Statement!!!
He has until Monday to research and get all of the information that is required and turn it in. I'm super excited about the timing because David will turn his in on Friday morning
- well before the deadline {which always looks good!} -
since he's taken that day off to spend with some friends.
If he hadn't taken that day off we would be scrambling to figure out how to get it there!
Would you all mind continuing to lift us up in prayer in this area?
David's 75 hour work weeks and minuscule earnings (at least in comparison to the number of hours worked) are not nearly worth the amount of time he's missing out on at home.
