Finishing Out the Envelope Fundraiser

DRUM ROLL PLEASE.......TOTAL MONEY RECEIVED SO FAR.....$8,265.00 has come in so far for our envelope fundraiser! Alleluia! Praise the Lord! 

THANK YOU SO MUCH everyone who was a part of this fundraiser! You are such a huge part of this journey, and we are so grateful to you for your support! 

Today is the day that we had originally aimed to have all our envelopes returned, and we have received 100 envelopes back! So many of you included notes and prayers of encouragement, and some of you even included more than you signed up for! We are so blessed to have had such a wonderful outcome for our fundraiser! We thank our Heavenly Father, and we thank each one of you who made a sacrifice to help us bring our children home! 

ALL OUR ADOPTION FEES HAVE BEEN COVERED, and OUR (estimated) PLANE TICKETS HAVE BEEN COVERED AS WELL!!!! How absolutely MARVELOUS!

This fundraiser, has been such an emotional journey from anxiety and issues of having to lay down our pride to get started, to standing in awe of the shear number of people who stepped up to help us, to crying tears of joy as each of the envelopes came back full of blessings.

Though "Thank you" cannot fully express our gratitude and appreciation for all your help, we thank you, and we continue to pray God's blessings and favor for each one of you who gave so generously. Please stay tuned to our blog for updates on our adoption and for pictures (once we are allowed to post them). 

(If you haven't had a chance to get your envelope returned yet, that is okay, we can still send them in when you are able to. I know some of you let me know that you were just mailing yours out)
