Opening Day

Pictures from Eve Trader's Opening Day!
E. took this picture. It's the stock behind our counter.
This picture is so HORRIBLE I just had to post it, plus it breaks up the monotonous boringness of the other two pictures I posted. I have no idea what I am telling that man about the pens he's holding but he bought them. (See money in my other hand.)
Before the ribbon cutting.

The Big Day

Eve Traders officially opens today at 3PM. We'll start with praise and worship and prayer and then cut the ribbon. I was there most of yesterday stocking. It was a blast. I'm exhausted but I am remembering how much I love retail. I do. I love retail. All those years working at Barnes and Nobles DID have a purpose.

We also have some kind of Remembrance Prayer between 11Am-12noon today for Hindu friends. The man's father died some time back and he is holding a large program to remember him and he has specifically called O. to come and pray, which is a huge step in our ministering to them, so we can't really miss it. (major runon, but I'm leaving it.) It would be nice if these two things fell on different days...

I asked my sister-in-law and niece to watch the girls today and make lunch, so at least I'm free.

Just on a side note since I read Jamie's comments on another post: The purpose of the Stationary Store is to support the ministry and God's ministers here in India.

Eve Traders Opens

Tomorrow. Thursday, May 15th.

Our little stationary store is set to open up tomorrow and we already have parents stopping by to get their children's school textbooks. I think it's gonna be bonkers for a couple days. But bonkers is good!

Pray for us.
