Say Hello to your friendly Gap employee!!!

As some of you may know, Vince and I have been talking a lot, and praying more about if I should be working a day job during our time back in Allen. We decided to see how things went during our first few weeks back, and basically I was going stir crazy during the day which led to 3 things. 1.) lots of munching 2.) watching way too much TV 3.) shopping shopping shopping.
As you can imagine, I none of those things are good for me, my figure, or bank account! So... Autumn got a job! We had been praying that God would open the right door at the right time. I am pretty complicated since I need a job that is really flexible and understands my hours with Crusade, and that it is my priority. IE I cant work nights or weekends- which in the sales industry is a death pill. Anyway, I applied at Fossil where I used to work, and loved, but they didn't need someone who could work when I was available. So today, I was talking with Lori Joiner, my support coach, and she said, "I am going to be praying that God gives you a job that they need you so much, that they are willing to take you when you can work for them!" All I can say is I want her praying for everything in my life because not even an hour later, I stopped by the Gap to just see if they were hiring so I could drop off a resume. I met with a manager, and they asked me to fill out an application, and before I knew it I was in an interview with the store manager. I was still worried they would be deterred by my availability, and that I have a few weeks over the next few months that I will be traveling with Crusade, but CRAZY God thing, they said 1.) It wasn't a problem 2.) They needed someone to work exactly the hours I am available 3.) Can I start tomorrow??? That was amazing, and I clearly saw how God worked it all out, from getting along well with the manager, who was excited I am a believer, and is also a writing major (crazy!), and the hours and they pay is perfect!
We will see how it pans out, but I am so thankful! We are excited to have a little extra coming in to help out and save towards the future! Exciting!!!

Soo...... come visit me, I'm at the Gap Outlet!
