Fundraiser update

 Matthew 10: 29-31Are not two sparrows sold for a cent? And yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father.  But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.  So do not fear; you are more valuable than many sparrows. 

As the time slowly creeps in on us we realize the financial burden that comes along with adoption is fast approaching, so we wanted to give an update on our adoption fundraiser. First and foremost thank you to all that stepped up and gave to such a worthy cause we appreciate and treasure every dime that was sent in. Some of you went above and beyond what we ever could have expected. You can bet that you have a special puzzle piece with your name on it that will grace our nursery wall.
Unfortunately we still have a ways to go...adoption is very expensive and while we don't agree with the "system" it is what it is and if it can give us a child and a child a home we are willing to do what is necessary. Asking for money in hard, we had to put away our pride and reach out even when our economy is suffering, but more importantly the children are suffering and birth mothers that could easily choose abortion are suffering financial because they chose adoption hoping that there will be a family that can raise their child. You are giving birth mothers a chance to say no to abortion, giving them hope. Read this blog except here: http://journeytoapromise.blogspot.com/2011/06/reality-and-fundraising.html she can explain this much better than I can.

Again thank you for being part in God's journey.
