Sorry I have not written in a while, I have been busy with school, but I did find something that inspired me to write today, so thank you, Mrs. Shackley! The sign said "No one can do everything, but everyone can do something." What this means to me is that we can't get all this money all by ourselves.
We are going to need some help and that is were you come in, even if you can just give a little, God will use that. A few days ago we took our savings, prayed over it, and sent it off. Our goals for helping in Uganda are big though, and we need help.
My Mom told us that God will multiply our money. That this is just one seed we planted. Now we just have to patiently wait.
I just want to say that us going to Africa is not going change everything. Only God can do that but if every one does a little to help it will make a difference. Five dollars can heal a kid in Africa from Malaria or get a toy for a kid that will always makes them smile. Simple things mean so much to these children.
Today I am going to tell you about our "Donate Button".
As you know we are raising money for Return Ministries to build a children's home and school. They have a plan to start with one phase and then do the next; but to do this they also need land. My family is cutting back on things like TV, soda, we only go to restaurants occasionally (like on weekends...kids eat free at Steak n' Shake) and... AIR CONDITIONING!!!
My challenge to you is when you go shopping (or anywhere) think of what you need and not what you want.
(P.S Thanks if you Donate)
