We serve a gracious God! If you had told me when we began this fundraiser that, in just six weeks, we would be over one-third of the way toward reaching our goal of $60,000, I don't know that I would have believed you! I am AMAZED by God's faithfulness, and I am so encouraged by the love and support of our family and friends and even complete strangers! My heart is overflowing with such excitement for all that this means for Josiah!
Yes! I said over one-third! As of yesterday, we are officially at $20,222.32! I tend to use too many exclamation points when I write, but this post deserves A LOT!!!!!!!!
So as not to bog down our church secretary too much, I am getting a list of the people who have given just three times during the fundraiser. So that will be at the $20,000, $40,000, and $60,000 markers. It is important to me that we express our gratitude to everyone who has helped us make this happen for Josiah. Your "thank yous" are coming! And, for those who are concerned, I only get a print out of the names who have given. I do not know amounts. I got the first list of givers yesterday, and I was so emotional reading the names! Your love and concern for Josiah and our family has been like a huge hug from Jesus! We will never be able to thank you enough!A few quick reminders:

We would love for you to check out these fundraisers for Josiah, and perhaps consider hosting one yourself! God used Kathy's estate sale to bring in over $4200! He used Crystal's cupcake sale to bring in over $1100! And He used our profit share event at All That Jas to bring in $300! That is close to $6,000 for Josiah in just three fundraising events! Thank you to these ladies once again!!!
We can't wait to get started on Josiah's therapy room! And we are well on our way to raising the funds needed for his therapy pool! It will be life changing for him! This is a video of our boy in the tub early this morning! He is a water baby for sure!
Because of His Grace!
