Pros... Cons...
Pros: wider range to impact kids; hours more conducive to a life outside of work; can enable others to make a bigger difference in the lives of more kids; have time to plan and implemet ideas; can continue to see kids but just less frequently and could possibly apply the quality-not-quantity concept; moving on-- something that is inevitable eventually; taking a step forward...
Cons: leaving my kids, some of whom I have worked with daily for the past 6 years; leaving the environment where I am most comfortable; not being hands-on with kids as much anymore; playing the boss role; having to wake up earlier; closer to the annoyances of administration; taking a step forward...
... in prayer about a new job opportunity, still with the Boys & Girls Clubs...

We, too, will be in prayer for your new job opportunity and for your sleeping (or, more accurately, waking) habits.

Whatever decision you make will be right. I know this for two reasons: 1) you are very wise and well planned AND 2) BECAUSE you are wise, you have realized that only God can lead you where you need to be and have sought His guidance therein. Paula and I will be praying for you also. You can never have too many people agreeing with you before God.

Just whispered a prayer for you. Whatever you decide, know that your last 6 years at the Boys and Girls club have literally changed and strengthen lives, bettered the community and added to the Kingdom of God. Thank you for doing what you do.
