Journey to Cole
Our
Journey to Cole has been one amazing blessing
after another. We began not knowing how we were going to
fund the adoption but we knew that it was God’s will for
him to be a part of our family. We had a garage sale, a
tennis tournament and I sold things in several consignment
sales. However, we still lacked a large portion of the
money we knew we would need.
My sister
had the idea of doing a fund raiser for us and at
first I was very unsure and I felt very uncomfortable
about the whole thing. I was actually feeling bad for her
because she was being so kind and I did not want her to
feel bad if it was not successful. We talked about it and
she said that if God was going to do something we had to
give him the chance!! She was hoping we would raise $1000
and I was just hoping we would raise the money she spent
on the camera. Boy, were we wrong!!! He showed up BIG!!!
Not only did we raise over $7000.00, but we received a
grant for $3000.00 from the
Elison Project!! I cannot
believe how we underestimated Him and when I look back on
last few months I am still blown away by all of the
support we received during and after our fund raiser.
There are so many people whom I would like to thank for
their kindness, generosity, selflessness, and prayers!!
You have all given me such a precious gift. Not only am I
going to China to get my cherished son, but I have
witnessed first hand God’s miracles in my own life and I
will be forever changed!! We are truly blessed!!! |
