Here’s the scoop. We need roughly $10,000. You can see from our fundraiser thermometer to the right of this blog. That includes travel cost, agency fees, visa appointment fee for our child, visa physical for our child, & child care cost (the fees of someone caring for our child until we can travel to Japan to pick them up).
We have 2 more fundraisers lined up. Honestly, I’m not sure what we will do after those. This is hard stuff. Thank you to everyone that has given, donated, & prayed.
Here are the next 2 fundraisers:
~Bake sale! We are having a bake sale at church on this Sunday after the morning service.
~ Basketball tournament! Here are the details again:
*Saturday, October 19th @ 10:00am
*Location: New Hope Worship Center
* 18 years & older please
* The tournament will be double elimination.
* Concession stand will be open with drinks & other food items.
* The cost is $40 per team.
* Please let us know your team by Wednesday, 10/16/13. Please email your team to littlehouseofperrys@gmail.com. The referees will discuss all rules with coaches the morning of.
* All proceeds benefit our adoption from Japan! Please help us get one step closer to bringing our baby home & bringing Samuel’s baby brother or sister home!
* Thank you for your support! We hope to see you there! Please feel free to invite any of your friends! Help us spread the word & bring baby Perry home!
Will you please continue to pray for us? Here is how you can pray:
- Please pray for our next 2 fundraisers.
- Pray for us to be diligent with our finances & to save as much as we can.
- Pray for the 2 adoption grants that we applied for. We hope to hear back from 1 of them in the next 3-4 weeks. The other 1 we won’t hear back for another 2 months or so.
- Pray for our child & birth mother.
- Pray for provision.
