Bloggy friends, I just had to jump back on today & share a happy with you!!! I've been waiting to go on a mission trip this year. It's almost been a year since Ethiopia. My heart yearns to serve at an orphanage.... anywhere!!!!!!!!!!! I got a call yesterday that a spot, ONE more spot was open for our church's mission trip to Haiti. I will admit, I've been begging the Lord for this one!!!! I adore my pastor's wife & she is taking a small group to Haiti to serve at the orphanage we sponsor as a church family. The trip was full. I've been WAITING. They purchased my ticket today & now the fundraising starts:)) I'm doing this a little backwards.... ticket bought, now how to pay!!!!
I'm a faithful blog stalker & know many of you out there have had SUPER successful fundraisers. Can you give me any fun ideas for me to do? The mission trip is Aug. 24th, so I have to start now! The cost is $1,300- includes everything from A to Z.
It's so much fun to blog about a certain subject & BOOM out of nowhere God says..... GO NOW!! Its time!!!
Please pray for me.

Kari,
ReplyDeleteJust pray about the fundraiser.
God will give you ideas.
Sometimes it comes from ways I never expected.
Praying for you
and
a little bit jealous:)
How cool is that?? Can't wait to see just how He provides, know it will be amazing.
ReplyDeleteKari - how exciting!!!! God is going to provide!! What about raffling off something... maybe an Ipod? Might raise at least 1/2 of what you need :)
ReplyDeleteWhich orphanage? We have two sisters from Haiti who were adopted by a family at our church!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! I'm a bit envious, though. God will guide about the fundraising!
