Christmas Break

Right now I am home for my Christmas break from school. I am having a great time getting out to both of our services each weekend and getting to know those people in my church. It is amazing having people come up to me telling me that they are excited to hear about my trip and asking questions about it.

I am excited to talk to my church and to share my vision with them. To show them why I am so passionate about helping these children.

UPDATE

There was some more money that came in from the silent auction. THE GRAND TOTAL $1095.00. That is so incredible. This leaves me with only $8979.00 left to raise which should not be hard at all. I just need to find 89.79 people to graciously give me $100. Or 100 people to graciously give me $89.79. Thanks again everyone.

Silent Auction

Friday December 7 2007 Cornerstone Wesleyan Church held a Silent Auction and cookie exchange. The money that was raised from the auction is going towards my missions trip. My mom emailed me the number in last night at $763 was raised for me. I am so excited. God is so good and he provides for His children.

I want to thank everyone that was a part of it and that has helped me so far in my journey. I am so excited to talk to everyone when I am home about it and thank people in person.

Carpe Diem, Deborah

The first of many

Things are getting started. My budget has been set ($10,074) and my support letter is written....now I just have to send it out. I shall be departing in five months for the Ukraine. I am very excited to get there, but I am nervous as well. I mean five months in another country where I can only say hello my name is and goodbye in their language. This could be rough. But God will get me through it and so will all of the prayer support I know I will have. Keep praying and remember Seize the Day, don't let anything slip by.
