Hi. I'm Megan (Heisey) Fleming, and I thought since the other Meghan wrote some non-newsy news I would too. Adam and I have two boys, 4 & 2 and one on the way in May. We're in a major life change mode in which we don't know where we will live or what our income will be after the next 4 months. This is by choice, fortunately, but we are entering the realm of discomfort with the faith that we'll be moving into our life's passions and callings: in the arts; in providing life coaching to artists, missionaries, and couples; and traveling to unreached people groups. Anyone who has wind of a decent paying sales job (for Adam), a transformational life coaching position (for me), or art connections is welcome to email me! I'd like to move to Lancaster County to be close to my parents and siblings, so a job opportunity out there would be ideal.
