Package #2 to Ruby, and more funds


We just sent off another "small" package to Ruby today, with a spring dress, socks, hat and hair pretties. Pat was laughing and did not think I could cram it in that small of a package! I would've sent more, but didn't want the kind person carrying it to give up anymore room in her luggage!

My mom has also committed to come to China with us to help with the transition this time. Which I am thrilled about! She will have to provide her own way, and it is hard that we can't provide the way for her, but I am totally thankful she is willing and able!

Since our last post we've had some funds come in. We are now at $2,315 raised, and $16,045 left toward our goal. My sweet Granny also gave us a vehicle, and so we will be selling Pat's very cool Truck!!! Since that's not an actual figure, we are not counting that until sold. But we praise God all the same as Granny was praying for a way to help us, and we had suddenly realized we needed a different car for Pat to fit the girls in. It is not easy to give up the truck; it's very convenient to have one, but we will do what is required. No Question!!!!

LuLu is so excited for Ruby, and continues to be sure that we ask in these words when we pray: "Soon, fly to Ruby, soon" Jesus!

There is a Waffle/Pancake Breakfast after Sunrise Service on Easter morning at Seaside (8 am) if you'd like to come. This is the next fundraiser scheduled! Thanks to you lovelies that had the ideas, purpose and preparedness to do this so quickly for Ruby. Love to you all!
