It's Official!!!

Yep....it's official - there is no turning back now. :)  Last night I dropped off my deposit for the trip. Actually, it was more than the deposit since I did not like keeping all that money in the house. It has been amazing to see how God has provided the money necessary for myself, as well as, my friends. We each still have a little left to raise but we will make it!  Our next fundraiser is a car wash on June 4th.

Yard Sale Fundraiser

On Saturday, we had a yard sale to continue raising funds for our trip. As part of this journey, I have done many things that have taken me out of my comfort zone and did things that I said I would never do again, like having a yard sale. The reward was worth all the hard work. We made $440 and all got a little too much sun!! Here are a few pictures from our fun filled day in the sun.



Arise Africa Weekend Video

Here is the video from Arise Africa weekend at Journey. It was a blessing to hear Godfrey speak. I am looking forward to working with him and his team in July.

Family, Fun and Fundraising

Saturday we had our hot dog fundraiser at Green Road Park.  


We have an awesome small group who helped out.  

Our family and friends chipped in to get all the supplies that we needed so that we had no overhead. 


The event was a great success. We made $400!  


Thank you to all the friends and family who came out to support us.
