Before I formed you in the womb I knew you

"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
before you were born I set you apart;
I appointed you as a prophet to the nations."
-Jeremiah 1:5

Short and Sweet part 2


         This weekend we’ll have our first fundraiser at the Washington County Fairgrounds. We’re going to be selling food at an auction in the 4-H building beginning at 9AM. We spent last Friday night at Sam’s Club in Bloomington (which now is my 3rd favorite place in Bloomington after Assembly Hall & Pizza Express) and filled the car with boxes of food. Don’t worry though, we kept it simple, just the stuff we know how to make. Hot dogs, Brownies, chips….keeping it simple. And while we can’t promise you a gourmet meal, we’d still love to have you stop by and see us there. We’ve also placed our first order for our t-shirts, and we’ll have an order form with us Saturday for anyone who is interested in getting in on the next batch of orders. We’re holding out hope that our first order will be in by Saturday so we can wear them and give you an idea of what they’ll look like. But in the event that we can’t model them for you, we’ll make sure we have a picture for you to check out. In short, things are starting to get moving, at least with our fundraising, and we couldn’t be more excited. Every day that goes by and every dollar we save gets us closer to bringing our child home. It’s an exciting and nerve-wracking time for us, but we appreciate all of the support each of you has given us.
