The First Fundraiser


Our Full Garage

For weeks we have been stacking boxes in our garage filled with love from others. Love that we hoped and prayed would provide some necessary funds  to move our adoption along. Our garage ended up full! We were amazed at the out pouring of support. So we spent some late nights pricing, making signs and getting things ready.

The Driveway
We had friends lined up to help, that were going to show up at 6am on Saturday morning. And then on Friday, our friends from AL called to say they were bringing their 6 pairs of hands to help with the sale as well. Logan, their oldest had a lemonade stand as well as a bake sale. The sale was on.

Logan's Lemonade
It was great to tell our story to people.  People were filled with generosity and love as they inspected our goods. Lots of items were bought. We had enough left over for a yard sale in the spring. Between the lemonade stand and the sale we raised enough for ½ of our immigration payment. All we can say is Praise the Lord.
