all praises to our King

God is just so good to us!

Everything is coming along so smoothly for us so far in our planning for Africa. We have been extremely blessed by donations and prayers this month and our hearts are simply overflowing with joy and praise. We have just a couple thousand dollars more we would like to raise to cover flight costs and then hopefully have an abundance to donate toward the orphanage. [Our donation website, everribbon.com, does not take into account checks that have been mailed to us or any pledged monthly support, so the amount raised that is shown is not accurate.] We are working on getting together our visa paperwork and will hopefully have it all completed and ready to send in by the end of April. We are just simply awestruck by the support we have received by our church, family, and friends. The Lord truly has it all worked out and we haven't a worry in the world. He will accomplish His will in us.

Just to give you a heads up, we are working with Immanuel in Bridgman MI to put together a rummage sale to help raise funds. We are scheduling it for Saturday May 24th, so mark it on your calendar! Please feel free to start collecting anything that you'd like to donate to our rummage as you start your spring cleaning (although its still snowing in Michigan)! We will let you know the specifics when it is all set in stone.

We are also speaking tonight at Immanuel at 7pm if you are in the area please feel free to stop by!

Thank you a million times for all the prayers you have been showering on us in these past months. God is faithful and is certainly at work in our lives.
