It would be a nice pay raise for me and allow me to support my family better. As many of you know I was recently married (in 2010) and we are getting to the point where starting a family is being discussed. So this new job would help with our planning/decision making. Thanks for the prayers. (only one downside- I have to shave my beard.) Last edited by Nelson Chase; 05/11/12 05:40 PM.

Through the miraculous intercessions of St. Xenia of Petersburg (patron of those seeking employment), I pray that all will go well on Monday and that you will get the job you seek... I will keep on remembering you in prayer to her through Monday--please ask for her intercessions as well. All the best, In Christ our Lord--Alice

Nelson Chase Member Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 978 Fatherhood	Thanks for the prayers! I am about to get ready to head off for the interview! Also, to answer why I had to shave my beard- the university department that I am applying for has a no facial hair policy. So, I am now beardless...
