Goal met !!!!















To the anonymous person who dropped a blank envelope in our mailbox:
Your kind words were such a surprise and encouragement. Your generosity is unbelievable!! I love how God has a plan for all things. Your trust in Him is an answered prayer for us. We were a little over $500 short, after our garage sale, from reaching our goal to begin the home study. Your money arrived before we even knew our need. Truly, it was an answered prayer. Thank-you friend! We are hoping to move forward with the home study at the end of the month!!!!

The garage sale was a huge success. We had wonderful conversations with “shoppers” about adoption and shared information about the needs for orphans all over the world. It was so charming to watch people find treasures. We laughed and shared crazy stories all day. We made close to $1300!!!! WOW …. Selling our friends and family’s stuff. Truly, very few things at the garage sale were from our home. It was so encouraging and humbling to see God’s work over the weekend. We are just thrilled!

My Mom took tons of pictures. I will upload soon! It was really a huge sale. 17 directional signs all over Oregon City, contributions from over 13 different families, adoption T-shirts, 150 hot dogs, and signs sharing statistics about orphans in our world.

Thank-you!
Praise Jesus.
