Grateful & Humbled

Words cannot even begin to express my gratitude to the people who have sent money donations for our trip.  One set of friends gave a generous amount even though they are facing financial difficulties.  Another person, whom I have only met twice, sent cash this week because they want to support our journey.  Our family has also been supportive and generous and we honestly are humbled at what people have given and grateful that our financial needs are being met.  I have raised over $800 doing my crafts (still taking orders, by the way) and that almost pays for one of the kids.

I'll be honest, raising $5,000 seemed like an overwhelming amount and it still is, but thank you from the bottom of my heart to those who have purchased one of my crafts or sent in money.  We took a leap of faith knowing that we should go on this trip and that we couldn't pay for it all by ourselves.  It has been an amazing process to see God work and provide our needs day by day.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.
