The first Week: Fundraising & Revelations

We have been hard at work praying, fundraising & having pictures made this week. Oh, and we also pulled off a birthday party for my handsome little four year old man-cub Jackson, 
with homemade cake!

We have started passing out Chinese Food containers with labels that say "Make aWay for Michal Adoption Fund" and links for the fundraising sites. I credit God with that idea, because as much as I would LIKE to be creative, I am generally NOT!!  
IF YOU CAN FILL A BOX or KNOW A BUSINESS WHERE YOU CAN PUT ONE, PLEASE LET US KNOW ASAP!

We also ordered tickets people can get for a $10 donation for a chance to win an iPad mini. 

The drawing is scheduled for April 15th!! 
If you would like some tickets or maybe more importantly, if you think you can sell a book of 10 or two, PLEASE let us know. 

God continues to impress  upon us that this is NOT something He wants us to do off on Matthew & Bethany island. 
His plan is to bless many through their involvement in this RESCUE MISSION!
"Jesus loves the little children. ALL the children of the WORLD. Red and Yellow, Black & White. They are precious in His sight." 

To me, just in this one week, God has strongly impressed on me His love for the 1!
"What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off?
Matthew 18:12
It is amazing to me that there is one little girl on the other side of the world, and God so loved her, that not only did He send his son Jesus to die for her sins. . . He knocked a couple of middle-class yuppies that were pluggin' along like everyone else upside the head & said "Hey, I need you! Get in the game!" And now, even though we don't know what we are doing or how He is going to make this happen, we say, "Yes, Lord! May it be unto us as you have said." (Luke 1:38). 

If God loves one little girl so far away that much, how much does He love you?? 
I pray you will accept His love completely today!! 
Trust Him! He is worthy of trust! 


We are also planning a Garage Sale at The Storeroom at 2530 E. President St. May 4th. 
WE NEED VOLUNTEERS TO HELP with this. 
If you can help us organize or work the sale, please let us know.

WE NEED ENCOURAGEMENT!
 If you are praying for us or 
if God gives you a word of encouragement for us, please tell us. 
This is a huge, long, difficult process. 
We need to hear from you!

TO GOD BE THE GLORY! GREAT THINGS HE HAS DONE & CONTINUES TO DO!
