We are incredibly thankful for all the encouragement we received and the funds that were raised through the silent auction luncheon on March 11th. The entire event went far better than we had even hoped! We were blessed by all of the people who volunteered to help or showed up to bid on items and get involved in the chance drawings. A number of local businesses and individuals kindly donated gift cards, art work, hotel stays, handmade products, professional services, football memorabilia, games, and many more items that were auctioned off. Immanuel Baptist Church let us use their building for the event and with a lot of hard work, everything came together nicely. At the end of the day, the total amount raised has brought us to within $2,000 of our fundraising goal! We are once again reminded that we serve a big God who loves to provide in His own timing for whatever He has called each of to.

Now that our big fundraising event has passed, we are continuing on with the work to complete our dossier. In addition to acquiring apostilles for several items, we still have many documents to obtain and have notarized. It can all be a little overwhelming at times, but we are confident that this will all be worth it in the end.  

Please join us in praising God for His continued provision and the reminders that He is faithful to provide what we need. Please also pray for us as we work to complete the remaining portion of the dossier in a timely manner.

“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.” Ephesians 3:20-21
