Lifesong Grant

God is moving in some pretty awesome ways with this Lifesong grant. What we are choosing to do is wait until November to tell you how much is in the account.  We are checking weekly because we will need to use some of the money before November but you guys have to wait!  It will be more fun that way!

All I can say is that we are touched and blessed by how God is using people to help us.

We can also say that our church elders are discussing matching more than three thousand dollars.  The way the grant works is that Lifesong recommends a grant and our church supplies the money if they choose to follow through with the recommendation. For us, Lifesong a recommended $3000 matching grant and made a note that said "more if we get two kids."  Well we have actually paid the international fee for the second child so we are sure that we will get two kids.  This means that our church may reconsider the amount that they will match.

Please be praying for the elders as they make this decisions.  We already feel so blessed to have the $3000 and definitely do not expect more. We know that God will bring the money somehow.  It is such a blessing to have our church family behind supporting us every step of they way.
