So in looking over our fee structure, I have found hope and a challenge. Please spread the word and pray for us. I'm not asking those to give who can't, but being willing to help in any way you can (volunteering, praying, passing out our adoption cards) as we set about earning the "ransom" for our daughter will be a wonderful blessing to us and her.
Looking over what is due and when, I realized that the bulk of the fees will be due in a rather short amount of time. The first set of fees we have ALMOST covered, praise the LORD! And by the time our dossier(all the documents that will go to Uganda) is ready to be submitted, all the rest of the fees, aside from what we will need for travel, will be due. So, in the next three months, we need to raise about $7,000-$8,000.
The good news is that the rest of the time we would only have to raise funds for travel, probably around $10,000-$16,000. Still a large amount of money, but really the last third of our fundraising needs.
SO, please pray that the fundraising that we do is blessed!! We are thinking of doing an ice cream social at our church, but are sure of NO details yet. We're just praying about what would be fun for our church and community to participate in, but that would also be beneficial in bringing our girl HOME!!!
Also, we are putting together a photo puzzle of Alma. If you wish to have a piece dedicated to you/your family you can donate $23 (it's a 1,000 piece puzzle)and your name will go on the back. When we're fully funded, the puzzle will be totally finished, framed front and back so we can see all those who have contributed. If you would like to "buy" a puzzle piece, please click the donate button on the right or email me at Chicamia84@msn.com for our mailing address to send a check, or for any questions.
