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
WE ARE 50 % FUNDED

Pancake Fundraiser

I am still in awe of how God showed up in such a wonderful and profound way on Saturday.  After  weeks of preparing, planning, and praying our first large fundraiser is over and completed.  We personally want to thank our life group and our parents for coming out so early in the morning to help us.  We also want to thank and brag about our three boys. They were awesome helpers and willing workers.  Our boys were the waiters and I am happy to report we did not have any spills.  Our breakfast started at 7:00 a.m. and ended at 10:30 a.m..  When no one showed up until 8:30 we were getting nervous (I have to admit).  However, at 9:00 it started to pick up.  We served 50 people breakfast! The fundraiser made close to $1,000!  We should have only made $200 if everyone had paid what was asked.  This amount would not have covered our expense, however, God showed up!  God had who he wanted to be at our breakfast.  We are so thankful to God for taking care of us and our daughter! Thanks God you rock!
