The Red Letters

For I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me. Matthew 25:35-36

Consignment sale

Today was our first fundraiser at Shine Again Consignment sale.  We ended up having 640 items!  I have not received a final total as of yet, but we only took home about half of our items.  Barb and Monica invited us to set up a booth to sell beverages, chocolate, and our t-shirts.  Yes our T-shirts have arrived and look very nice.  We made $130.00 from sale of the booth and donations from many generous people.   Today was a true blessing to our family.

Wow has time flown by with all three boys in school and soccer.  I am so thankful for the overwhelming blessings God has given to us through our friends and family.  Thank you to everyone who has been supporting us through prayer, clothing for the consignment sale, financially, and being a shoulder to support us through some storms that have come our way.  We are currently waiting for our home study agency to finish all the necessary paper work to complete our home study!  I am excited to start a new chapter in this long process.  Here are some fundraising updates:  consignment sale is two weekends away!  We currently have 530 items, but could use more.  We are starting the process of having our t-shirts printed and they will hopefully be available in two to three weeks!    I am working on a night out for the family wth comedy sportz!  If you have any ideas please send them our way.  We have a long way to go to reach our goal.
