1st Mailer

Our 1st Mailer is ready to be sent out today.... God has shown us His abundant favor continually during this journey and we are setting our sights on Him and Him alone!!!

Immediate needs and prayer request.

After mailing our "1st Mailer" in today with the next payment of $2200, our adoption account goes back to almost a zero balance. This next leg of the journey is what I would call the "big one".. We need to get our homestudy done pronto ($1400) and start working on all the document collecting. It's hard to say what the next step will cost in total-it's large... but we know God is bigger!!! We will be looking into setting up an account for people to make on-line donations that will go directly to our adoption agency into our account. We are learning as we go....so be praying God gives us wisdom, financial favor and an abundant portion of trust in Him!!

Blessings to you all
Shelly & Darren

God's Favor!!

Wow... we are just so thrilled and excited !!!

A couple of weeks ago we took most of what we had left over from our two garage sales this past summer to the Trash & Treasure Sale at the Fourm, and what bounty over flows!! We now have the $2200 we need in our adoption account for our next payment deadline of November 2nd! We raised just over $1000.00 at the T & T Sale and Darren found a buyer for his sled too!!! That money put us at what we needed!!!
