We're off
Just handed in my notice to our trustees. It was a very difficult decision to come to, but a new adventure beckons.

I have given a four month notice period (contract says three, but there are some projects we're working on and so four will be better). My last Sunday with our church will be 26th October.

After that we're moving to America. Mrs G's family is in the Indianapolis area, and she would really like to be nearer to them. We have two little children and one of them has a medical condition, so being nearer to family makes a lot of sense for Mrs G.

I have been in talks with one prospective employer, though as yet, I do not have anything lined up. Hopefully that will change soon.

There's loads to sort out. We just put our house up for sale today. Given the current climate we might get about £1.50, but the good news is that equates to almost $3, so we should be OK!

Re: We're off
Hey good luck to you and your family rev. As a matter of interest we are off too, back to Africa. I hope that your trustees treat you better than my former employers who've been absolute bastards and legally I can do nothing. I find it very sad that companys' can behave as they do with impunity. Anyways everything of the best for you .

Congratulations and the very best of luck. You're only allowed out of the country on the proviso that you continue to post on here. I hope you understand that G.

Re: We're off
Many thanks for all the good wishes. I'll still be around on here for the next four months, and once we're Stateside I plan to check in too. I love this place and though it is an international community (and all the richer for it), the bulk of people are from home and so it will be one great way to stay grounded in all that.

Re: We're off
Nice one Pardre. I read your post recently saying you were looking at the possibility, it's all happened pretty fast.

Get over there and speak some GR sense to those crazy yanks. Good luck fella.

Best of luck. I remember when I emigrated to Oz it was a really exciting time.
