WELCOME!

We are so excited to share our Ethiopian adoption adventure, and our CRAZY lives with all of you! Our hope is that it will encourage you to step out in faith to do what God has called you to do! There are FIELDS of fatherless children waiting for someone to care for them, to love them, to tell them of JESUS' love for them...will YOU be the one??

And The Fundraising Continues!!:)

I haven't blogged much about our fundraisers since we had that referral "scare" in December...you know when we were number 2, and we thought it was going to happen ANY DAY! HA! Should've known better;)!

BUT, we ARE number 2 now(and perhaps number 1 for a boy;)), and we ARE anticipating a referral "SOON", so it's back to getting the word out about our financial need.

What stinks about getting a referral in April is traveling in JUNE!! The price of airline tickets is AT LEAST $500 HIGHER PER PERSON than in the spring!! C.R.A.Z.Y!!!!! So, our little outline of fees on the left sidebar is going UP! Plus, we have the last of the country fees due and the visa fee due on the FIRST trip. We have about $3500 saved for the first trip so far, but we need to raise the rest.....

SO, here we are....asking you to pray, and if led by the Spirit, to give.

We have THREE fundraisers going on, Olive Tree Promise, Just Love Coffee, and Ordinary Hero...all can be accessed by clicking on the appropriate links on the sidebars of this blog. Also, you can give monetary gifts by clicking the Chip-In button on the upper right if you wish.

In the meantime, we will be working our buns off to sell, sell, sell anything we can!!!;) SO CLOSE NOW!!:)

SO EXCITED to meet our new little treasure, and trusting the Lord to do what ONLY He can in all the details!:)

THANK YOU!!!:)
