This is an ode to our friend, Stacie:

Okay imagine that you step out on a limb and go into business with a brilliant and devilishly handsome partner. This partner is the one who sets up the guidelines which offer you direction and comfort in this crazy new venture. Promptly, this partner becomes debilitated by pain and most of the leg-work falls on your shoulders. Then imagine that this business partner goes in for a surgical procedure with the promise of returning to work within 2 months...a big dose of courage would be needed to make it through those 2 months...as you are left on your own with no direction...and no partner to help shoulder the load. Okay...those 2 months drag on and on to 9 months. What do you do? How do you keep the doors of the business open...especially if your partner is the one who guides the direction of the business and has a flair for drumming up new customers? Well, this is exactly what Stacie has gone through this past year. Not only was she able to keep the doors of Credit Works open, she has single-handedly taken the business in a new direction. She has researched the best business model for their current situation. Stacie has studied, trained, and invested in a new line of work. Starting March 1, Stacie will open the doors to her Allstate business...saving the company that she and Chuck started a few years ago. Yea Stacie! Yea God!

So, if you need auto, home, business or life insurance...go to Stacie Gonzalez at Allstate! Her new office is the old Credit Works office: 3219 Wurzbach...right across from Ingram Park Mall. The number is 210-521-4477.

We thank God for Stacie and ask for prayers for her new business adventure!
