Off to Work.

Sometime last year I was asking for prayer for my brother to get an electricians apprenticeship in Pittsburgh. He had a ton of support going down to take the test from family members and friends, but he never knew how many guys were praying for him on here. Well, he didn't get the job, he missed it because of minority rules and they ended up hiring less people then we had thought. But, it has turned out for the better.
A couple weeks ago we read about an employment opportunity at a local machine shop, it was a great apprenticeship program and Ethan applied for the job. It seemed that from start to finish God had hand picked this job for my brother. He applied for an 8 week payed training basic machining course, but when the interview was over they told him that they were considering him for a 3 year apprentice press technician opportunity. My brother has been wanting to avoid going to college, we have a lot of friends who end up going to college for a few years, just to come out with no job and lots of student debt. Ethan has always wanted to be payed learn, it seemed a little farm fetched in this economy, but here we are.
He is off for his first day of work, just some basic orientation.
I would like to thank everybody who took the time to pray for him over the last year, it has been a blessing and I know your words play a part in God's plan.
Thanks AAPK

Everything turned out for the best. My Dad was in the I.B.E.W. his whole life and he had to work jobs all over the state and was away a lot and laid off a lot between jobs. He made a good living but it wasn't an easy life. 
I'm in the IBEW and things are REAL slow the last two years have been
