The Word From Dublin

Well, some relatives and friends have asked me to keep them posted about the scholarship that we applied for from Dublin Christian Academy. I got the word today that they would award Mikayla a 60% scholarship on the tuition. In numbers, that would be about $4,182.00 towards tuition leaving about $2,818.00 for tuition and another $7,000.00 for room and board. For us to pay over $9,000.00 for her to go would take a miracle. At this point it looks like a no go, but I am still going on with the application process. I feel it is what she really needs that, neither I as a homeschooler nor the public school, can provide. I believe that if the Lord wants her there this year, He will provide a way. If it comes down to the fact that she just can't go, we will be ok with doing what we need to do here for her junior year and saving for her Senior year. I spoke for quite awhile with two different people at Dublin and was impressed with their willingness to pray along with us and answer any questions that I could come up with. Believe me, when you have had the total responsibility for your child's education along with the regular responsibilities that go along with parenting completely on your shoulders for this long, there ARE going to be many queries and questions! They have been very kind and quite understanding so far. I still have some more questions that I will probably reserve for our visit and meeting with the administration. So, that's the word. We covet your prayers on the matter.
