FAITH

Hello friends and Family,

I wanted to update everyone on all the things that have gone on lately!

First off our T-shirt and Younique fundraisers are now closed!
T-shirts should be shipped out by next week.

 

THANK YOU

to all that supported us through these two fundraisers, every little bit counts!!
 

 

As far as the yard sale goes, in my opinion it was a huge success!

We raised just over $900!!

I think that's a lot! sure its VERY easy to get discouraged and look at the overall total, 

1K is no where close to 20K

But I am working so hard to have faith that BIG things will happen so we can get to Eastern Europe ASAP.

I keep saying that EVERY little bit helps, because it DOES!
So Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all who so graciously donated to our yard sale!!

 

Now I want to talk about FAITH,

Having faith in this situation is hard for me.
 If I had my way, Id just have the money now, nothing would be holding us up and we'd be there NOW getting my son.

 But where is the glory to GOD in that?

 Where does his grace and mercy fall into that?

 If that were to happen, how would we learn to recognize Him and His hand in all of this?

I learned a valuable lesson this past week,

 He has called me to a very hard path, a path that REQUIRES faith.

We are walking on faith...
 that He will provide funds

Faith that He will keep Sam (Isaiah) SAFE

Faith that His Angels will protect and guide EVERYONE involved

Faith that we will also be safe

and

Faith that He will provide a way for our family.
 This is the biggest test of Faith I've ever had to endure.

There have been days when I have said "God, there is no way"
Then a complete stranger donates to our Go Fund Me page
Then again, I say "how will I endure?"
Then we have TONS of people donate to our yard sale, hundreds show up to shop, and people pay a BUNCH extra for a very small yard sale item and offer kinds words of support, a neighbor who donated after her yard sale and
we even had a sweet friend who donated almost all of our bake sale items!

So you see, I see God's handprint ALL over our lives and ALL over this adoption.
He will provide and I have faith in that.

So again, I am asking that you pray for this Family.
Pray that we can get the needed funds
Pray that lives will be touched through our Sam and his story.
Pray that Sam will be loved on until we can love on him
and Pray that the glory be to God



with all my love,
SAVANNAH

 

 



YARD SALE!!

This weekend we are hosting a yard sale to raise funds to bring home Sam!

 

God has provided in generous ways already, we have had a few donations and BIG ones might I add.

I cant believe how gracious and kind complete strangers have been, 

and we are so thankful!

 

Let me know if you'd like to help out or donate!

We'd love all the help we can get!!

 

Lets make this a big success!!

 

all my love,

SAVANNAH

Upcoming fundraisers:

 I wanted to let you know that our family will be hosting a LARGE yard sale on the morning on May 9th, from 7-1 as a fundraiser.

We are asking for donations to help us out!

Do you have Clothes, Shoes, furniture, blankets, etc. laying around that you could donate to us for this event?!

If so, get in contact with me and we can arrange a time for you to drop it off!

 

 

We also have a LARGE vendor fair coming up in our neighborhhod as well, all proceeds from this event will go towards our adoption fund as well.

My community is helping with this fundraiser, they came to me this week and asked if they could do this for us and I was OVER THE MOON!

I couldn't believe that they would do this for us and this, yet again, has left me humbled, loved and grateful for this amazing community we live in!

 

Don't forget you can donate via Paypal by pressing the "donate now" button on my side bar.

or My GoFundMe page is: http://www.gofundme.com/r4cprzk

 

 

We could not be more blessed!

Will you join me in prayer over this next week for my Sam?

Pray that angels will hold him, love on him and watch over him.

Pray that he will be healthy and safe until I can get there to hold and love on him!

 

With all my love,

SAVANNAH
