An Amicable Marriage Separation as an Answer to Prayer

An Amicable Marriage Separation as an Answer to Prayer December 10, 2013  Hello, Friends As many of you know from past letters Lyn, my wife of 34 years, had asked for a divorce in the fall of 2012. This is an update on its legal finalization and some unusually positive aspects of dividing assets. Lyn suggested, “I would like to make as part of the written agreement that we aspire to keep in touch with each other’s needs. And if one of us becomes in need we seek to help the other.” “Could we name each other as beneficiaries of our assets?” I wrote Lyn .

Una separación de la unión amistosa como Respuesta a la Oración 10 de diciembre 2013  Hola, Amigos Como muchos de ustedes saben de las cartas anteriores Lyn, mi esposa de 34 años , había pedido el divorcio en el otoño de 2012 . Se trata de una actualización de su formalización jurídica y algunos aspectos excepcionalmente positivos de los activos que se dividen. Lyn sugirió: " Me gustaría hacer como parte del acuerdo por escrito que aspiramos a mantenernos en contacto con las necesidades del otro. Y si uno de nosotros se convierte en la necesidad de que tratamos de ayudar a la otra.” “¿Podríamos nombrar unos a otros como beneficiarios de nuestros activos? " Escribí Lyn. Ella respondió: " Bueno, eso es algo que estoy dispuesto a hacer. " Tenemos un pagaré por $ 16.000 en la que la persona se tambalea en pagar por ti. "Voy a asumir la responsabilidad por ello", Lyn se ofreció en nuestro encuentro con nuestro mediador abogado. Una
Hello Friends,                  Your Prayers and My Mission  September 3, 2013   What do you do?”  “I work for the chiropractor who has this booth.”  “ You’re a chiropracter?”   “No, I am his helper.  Would like to sign up for a free adjustment?” “No, I don’t live here.  I work at peacemaking, working to end war. I have a booth here. I give out a pamphlet that tells how you can help do that by writing to President Obama, and your senator and your representatives with one click . Would you like one? Sure! Come visit me around the corner. What do you do when you are not here?” “I am mom, I have 3 kids.”  “Being a good parent to children  is important peace work, too, to create a future society of peace.” Thus went one of many conversations . Here I’m  sharing about peace with several women at my booth.  I gave out over 500 pamphlets in the five days I was there. As I reflected about  the  many conversations  I had I  sensed your  prayers  for my mission were

Separation to Divorce, help!

Hello Friend,          Separation to Divorce, help!           2/2/13 Not sure how to start this, so here goes. In June my wife Lyn ask for a separation. And then in October she asked for a divorce.
