Pasta, Yard Sale, Paperwork

Pasta, Yard Sale and Paperwork OH MY! We are winding down on our Pasta Sale until the next round at a later date. We’ll continue collecting orders until Sunday, October 4th. The online ordering should be opened for two more additional weeks but remember you will have to pay shipping. If you can, it would be better to order through us by Sunday so that we can save you the extra bucks. We soooo appreciate everyone who has ordered Fun Shaped Pasta to help bring our child home.

We are now in Yard Sale planning mode! Thank you so much to everyone who has cleaned out their homes to donate items to our yard sale. The overflowing support has been awesome! We are praying now for great weather next Friday, 10/9 and Saturday 10/10 and for a great turn out of people to buy, buy, buy :-) We are planning to sale baked goods too! I haven’t done that since I was Lily’s age. I remember our softball team would sell brownies, cookies, and pies in front of the Piggly Wiggly (now HG Hills) on Saturday mornings. Great memories and now I feel old too!

The paperwork is off and running… well at least my side of it. Please pray for the Scott Family right now. David’s Nanny has only a short time left with us here on this earth. We are at peace with it because we know that her heart belongs to Jesus and that soon she will not be suffering anymore. David has been trying to go visit her as often as possible so there has not been much spare time for him to start on his part of the paperwork. Right now he is doing what is most important at this moment. We know that we are not working on our time frame and honestly we need to raise a lot more money before turning it all back in to our social worker. It’s so hard to not be anxious! We want to bring our child home as quickly as possible but we are keeping our focus heavenward! We know that God is in control and we choose to press on! Phillipians 3:14 says “I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.”

Our next fundraising agenda is to sell T-shirts. So let us know if any of you have some creative ideas or know people that can help us out with getting them printed cheap.

Remember to praise God because HE is worthy! I can’t imagine my life without my Jesus! Thank you LORD for your son paying my debt so that I can be free! Thank you LORD for your love, grace, mercy and strength that you pour out over us daily!

Remember to mark your calendars to come check out our yard sale next week. I’ll post the address closer to time.

Thank you for all of your prayers and keep them coming. Especially pray for our child waiting in Haiti that he/she is staying healthy, has plenty of food and water, has people loving on him/her and telling them about Jesus already! We are coming for you sweet child!

Blessings,
Cindy
