Getting Close
We've been working so hard and we are finally getting close. We've almost done it.
In four weeks we will be leaving for France. No one thought we could raise enough money to pay for ten people to go on this trip. I knew in my heart it could be done. God is so faithful. The devil tried to lie to me and tell me it was hopeless more than once. Marty and I knew from the get go that with our financial situation if we didn't raise the entire amount to go on this trip we would not have the money to go. We just weren't going to have the extra. It was a big step of faith. I knew I couldn't give in and give up though.
Our big fund raisers were yesterday. The golf tournament was a huge success and so was the pork dinner. These fund raisers just about put us over the top! God is good!!!!! We were so blessed by everyone who showed up to help us and also by all who participated. It was great!
Harvest Christian Camp is beginning next week so we will be busy cooking for that and then teen camp. Once we are done with those then we can concentrate on getting ready to leave for France. Amy is so excited she can't hardly stand it. It's going to be quite the experience for all of us. It's also going to be interesting to see how Drew does at home alone. He's a little worried that he won't have food to eat or be able to do his laundry! I'm sure he'll be able to find some "mom" around that will take care of him while we're gone.
Thank you Lord for being so faithful. I praise you for helping us to know that we can trust you for every need.
