Please pray that Dan finds a job (he's applied all over the USA), because he wants to take his family and start again somewhere else. Their home is a wreck and they have no means of earning any money to fix it up.
Thanks.
Update 9/4/07:
God is good, and miracles happen. My friend Dan not only has a great job, finally, but he has a baby daughter. His second son has discerned a vocation to the priesthood!
And...looks like he's finally, finally recovered from all the complications (brain infection, migraines, intelligence loss) from West Nile virus. He's in school (while working) and has a 4.0 GPA.
Your prayers work! God grants miracles! I am so grateful for your prayers...two years after Katrina, this friend really has been blessed.

We could be scouting too. We have at least one small mountain community that has a house, car, money, etc. for a family for 6 mos. I don't know if there are any jobs up there though.

He was in the Navy as a cryptologic technician for several years, then was an industrial engineer for NASA for 11 years. I don't think he has completed a college degree. He has lots of computer skills and is an outstanding writer.
Thanks for your help.

Nancy,
Has your friend had any luck in finding a job? My husband says there might be an opening for him in his company, in Reston, Virginia.
He can send his resume to jobs@jl-white.com and copy it to davisc@jl-white.com.
Tell him to put it to the attention of Court Davis. My husband receives these emails as well as the personnel guy.
He can also give my husband a call if he wants to discuss the company and position. (703)262-4306
My husband doesn't do the hiring but does have influence. It is a small company with great benefits.

Molly,
Thanks; I've sent the info on to Dan. You're so kind to think of him. I know he's still looking; he's currently staying at his parents' home in Slidell.
You're a great friend.

Nancy,
Would the NSA be a possibility? My dh is a cryptologist there, and I noted the cryptological background of your dh. I also heard via the grapevine that Ft. Meade/NSA will be hiring more people. I don't know how accurate that is, but I do know they need American-born people for NSA.
In Christ,
Deborah
