Moving to Wisconsin

Posted in Everyday Life

I briefly mentioned before that we are going to be moving to Wisconsin. Currently, my husband is commuting two hours one way and that's getting old really fast!

We have had many concerns regarding our move, namely, What church should we go to? What town should we move to (it doesn't have to be the same town where he is working)? Will we be able to find other homeschoolers in that area?

Nothing has fallen into place right away, but finally it seems like doors are opening up. I called about four potential rentals today and three out of the four owners were home. I called two churches and ladies from both of them called me back. The one that we would really like to attend is the Calvary Chapel in Madison. We attended a Calvary Chapel in California and loved the teaching we received there. When the pastor's wife from this church in Madison called me, I found out that it's a small church, but most of the families homeschool. The other church is in a small town not too far from the town my husband works in and they have several homeschooling families, the secretary said, and a homeschool group that meets on Fridays.

I also found out yesterday that a moving company will actually move our stuff for us and I think this also includes packing for us. This seems too good to be true, so I'm not getting my hopes up too high, but what a blessing that would be (being almost four months pregnant at this moment).

Pray that we are able to find a house to rent and direction as to which church to attend. The church in Madison is about 50 miles away, so it would be wonderful to find a house to rent that's in between my husband's work and the church, but so far nothing has been available that we are aware of.

Hi! Thanks for sharing how God is working in your life. I love to read of His faithfulness! I'll pray you'll continue to trust Him for He already knows where you'll be! =)

I have a close friend who lives in Reedsburg which is close to Madison. She, too, had a tough time finding a church there as it seemed that most of the community was Catholic or something similar and they are from an Assembly of God background. I'm glad to hear that you feel confident that you've found a new church home. :) And finding other homeschoolers is a huge bonus. My friend hasn't found many...

We were in Wisconsin for a week this summer. It was a very nice place, beautiful! I think you'll like it. :)

Well, Minnesota will miss you, but you'll pay less taxes! I guess that's a bright side...
I hope you find a place that works for your family,
take care,
