Fundraising Update

As many of you know, our family will be leaving for South Africa tomorrow, May 11th.  This will close a small chapter of our lives where we have experience great blessing, some growing experiences, and a great chance to re-connect with loved ones.  Over the last 6+ months we have been raising funds for Restoring Hope Village.

We are excited to announce that as of today, RHI has received $132,599.  This means we have less than $20,000 left to complete our first building phase.  Praise the Lord for His faithful provision through the generosity of His people.  We can't wait to get back and start helping Brian & Lois with building.  And we can't wait to get back in good physical shape once we do start building that fence.  In case you hadn't heard, the entire fence will weigh 159,000 lbs.  So it should be inevitable that I lose some weight myself, right?
