Since we moved out of the old farmhouse, it has been filled with someone in need of a temporary home. In November it will become available again. Those who have lived in “The Nest” have paid for all utilities, taxes and insurance, which has helped to provide for the ministry expenses. Pray with us about the next Nest host(s).
