. Maureen is a contact person I found on line for Community Bible Study in Singapore. I went to Community Bible study last year where we live and really enjoyed it. It is an international program so when I found out we were moving I went on line to see if there was a class in Singapore, well I found out that there are six classes in Singapore and was given the name of the lady that helps coordinate all of those classes. I e-mailed Maureen and simply introduced myself and asked about the class, her response was a blessing. She gave her cell phone number and asked that I call her, so I did. We spent 45 minutes on the phone she was in California at the time of the call but she has been an expat in Singapore for 13 years. She told me that when I come she would be happy to help us find things and to answer any questions we may have. After a few more e-mails, I could tell there was a bond forming and that God was providing this wonderful woman for me to relate to in Singapore. When we got to our hotel it wasn't but a day or so and she e-mailed asking if we were here and could we get together for coffee. Scott and I spent a good part of the day yesterday looking at apartments, we liked one more than all the rest so we went on line to see if we could find a Church that was close to that apartment and we found the International Baptist Church, it is just about two blocks from the apartment so we talked about checking it out today. Maureen called to arrange a time to meet and we said how about lunch on Sunday so Scott could meet her husband, well it turns out they live right by the apartment we like and they go to the International Baptist Church. Whoa. Anyway we met with them after Church and went to California Pizza Kitchen for lunch and to chat. It seems that God if making lots of provisions for us with this move. Maureen personally knows a violin teacher who is great with teaching kids, he is 21 and he will come to our home to teach the boys. She told me about QB Foods in Singapore where you can get awesome fresh beef for like 4-8 dollars a pound, and the ground beef is only $3.00 a pound. I guess QB Foods is the distributor to the local stores and restaurants but you as a consumer can just go there and pay wholesale prices. Awesome!! I looked it up on line, it looks great, she will take us there when we come in November and they deliver so that is awesome since I will have to take public transit everywhere. Anyway we are seeing the hand of God in a lot of different areas and really had a lovely talk with the Lees' today. Thanks for praying for us!
