Money money money money…!
Good news this week: we received our financial aid award letters from GCTS and we got the Team Ministry Grant. Meaning, my tuition is completely covered. (Well, not if I take classes above and beyond my program, of course, but covered for what I need.) Awesome!
We still have Calvin’s half to figure out how we’re going to manage, and since we qualified for the Team Ministry Grant, he can’t receive any other aid directly from the school (it is after all a sizable chunk they’re giving us!), but he can still receive all the third-party scholarships and grants. Which, right now, we have none of…but, hopefully we can dredge up a few as time goes on. Of course, seeing as he’s a white male, he’s at a disadvantage (sorry Calvin…you’re a majority!).
If the last stage of my life was characterized by the refining attribute of “patience,” then I have a feeling the next stage will be be dubbed “faith.” I don’t know if that makes me feel much better…!

Interesting - I was thinking myself that our next stage of life was turning out to have a lot to do with faith. :-/
As for me being a majority, how many Linux using youth pastors want to eventually get a PhD (or at least some type of doctorate)? Huh?

That’s great love….I’m sure there’s loads of “Linux using youth pastors aspiring to get a PhD” scholarships out there.

It always does the heart good to see a married couple having conversations over their blogs….
