It was rather amazing the way it worked out.  Dorothy has been looking for a job for more than a month now.  And a week  ago Jim decided to hire her.  She is thrilled, overjoyed, ecstatic, and in general delighted to be working for us.  And then today it happened.  A man who is working for the U.S. Embassy phoned asking if she would like a job.  He had phoned five others before her whose names were on their list.  Everybody had already found a job.  So I asked him if he needed help finding a domestique.  He was happy to have our help.  We told him about a friend of Dorothy's from her village.  The lady is here in town and looking for work.  She has worked for Americans in the past.  Has done childcare.  Has cooked American cuisine.  She is so overjoyed she can hardly stand it.  She told Dorothy not to sleep tonight.  Spend the night in prayer.  She has her interview in the morning.  We are so very happy for her.  She will earn between 80 and 100,000 F which is between $160 and $200 per month.  Normal domestiques earn $80.  We are praying with  her, but will manage to sleep, too.
