Done.

DONE ... it's such a complex word that brings such finality, it can bring a wide range of emotions.

When we say 'done' we feel .........














ELATED!!!!!!!!!!!!



Why? Why do we feel such elation? Well ....

we are done raising our budget!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Yes ...... I'll say it again ........



WE ARE DONE RAISING OUR BUDGET!!!!!!

WOO HOO!


Through generous gifts and support that is totally overwhelming to us, and continued faithful monthly support by those that have partnered with us monthly, we have finally come to the end. Our cash budget is raised, and our monthly budget is set so that we will continue to have monthly support as we enter into this next phase in India. We are looking to receive our final clearance this week according to these contributions that are coming in and then be able to purchase our airline tickets!

I get chills just typing those words.

This truly is a miracle to us. A year and a half ago, with this phenomenal task ahead of us, we really had no idea how this was going to happen.

That's the amazing thing though, and what we have come to realize more than anything is that we don't have to know. We have a provider that is able to do more than we can even begin to believe or imagine and that is exactly what has happened here.

We are on our way. We are leaving in just 3 or 4 short weeks. We should have a travel date this week ... stay tuned for that.

We go with a force behind us.

I shared recently that I feel like that girl in the Verizon wireless commercials that has her 'network' everywhere she goes.



We have that & we are are blessed immensely because of it.

I know that everywhere we go, we have people standing with us and believing for us. That is so incredibly encouraging to us.

We know that there will be days!



There will be those days that come that it will be hard to get through being in a new and totally different culture, but those days will be made different because we will have the provision and protection that was petitioned by all of those standing with us. We can't thank you enough for that.

So ... it is done. WOW ... I've got to go pack ...
