For the past 3 months, many of you have been praying with us that the Lord would provide a job for me. For weeks, I spent countless hours searching for jobs and sending applications and resumes to employers, with little to no response. About a month ago I got an unexpected call from the Dallas 
School District, and to make a long story short, I have been hired to teach music at 
Cochran Elementary School. Cochran Elementary is a Title One K-6 school, primarily made up of Hispanics and African Americans (I have yet to see a Caucasian student in the school). Cochran has not had a music program, so I will be starting and building their music program. I spent today (my first day) cleaning out the classroom, learning my way around the school, and making friends with the head custodian (something they taught me in school as being essential to the well being of my music program).
Thank you for praying for my job. The Lord has provided in unexpected ways a job that I am trained for and I will truly enjoy. To God be the glorly.
I am SOOOOOO thankful. What a blessing (and opportunity) the Lord has given you. You will be in our prayers daily.
AWESOME! God is so good! Thanked God this morning for His perfect answer & prayed that He would give you wisdom as you navigate this new chapter!
Woohoo!!
Praise the Lord!! Can’t wait to hear all about it!! We’ll certainly be thinking of you and praying for you as you get started next week. Hope you absolutely love it!!
We are praising the Lord with you!
yay!!!! I’m so excited for you Amy! I know you’ll have fun…
Somehow I missed this post, but I am so excited for you. I can’t wait to hear all about it! And, to be able to start the program out–that is super exciting! (The next person will have big shoes to fill, I’m sure.)
Praise the Lord, Amy! This is such exciting news…what a wonderful opportunity. And it’s so neat to see how God reserved a “custom fit” job for you 🙂 Love and miss you guys! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Looks like you’re gonna have fun!
Excellent! I am so proud of you and know you will do well teaching public school!! You have an excellent track record with inner city children! PTL. You did well to make friendship with the head custodian and the next one should be the school secretary! Those two usually run a school!!! Love, G
