Friday Funding Update:
December 9, 2016

$23,597.02!!!!! 
We started this fundraiser a little more than two months ago, and we are well over a third of the way there!!! AMAZING!!! God is so GOOD! We are forever grateful to everyone who has given so far! Josiah is improving steadily. He is far from being back to his "baseline," but we are very thankful for the improvements we have seen. Our specialist appointment to consult about his GERD is on December 13th. Please pray for continued direction. He is still experiencing significant discomfort on and off throughout the day. His self-injury has significantly decreased, but is still an issue multiple times per day. 

We have some exciting fundraisers that we want to share with you!

Darla has graciously extended her Norwex fundraiser for Josiah! 40% of product order sales placed with the following link will be donated to Support Josiah through December 31st! Norwex is a wonderful product and a great Christmas gift idea! Thank you Darla for all of your efforts! Click this link to order!

Josiah's cousins Sage, Syndey, and Shayla, and his "honorary cousin" Cora are hosting another fundraiser for Josiah TONIGHT at Garden Valley Market (1037 Chapel Hill Rd, Burlington, NC 27215) from 5-7pm. Give a donaton and enjoy a cup of Hot Chocolate! The girl's enthusiasm about raising funds for Josiah has been a blessing to their Aunt's heart! Please come out and encourage their efforts! They raised over $300 at their last hot chocolate stand! In the words of one of Josiah's favorite cartoons, "SMALL IS POWERFUL, Believe it!"

We are so very grateful to everyone who has hosted a fundraiser for us! Jenni raised over $500 at her LulaRoe event, and Jennifer made a donation to Josiah's fundraiser from her 31 party. As I have said many times before, every dollar counts!!!!

AND THANK YOU  to everyone who has made a donation via PayPal or by mailing a check to BEACON. We have been amazed by how God is using your generosity to help us reach our goal of $60,000! 

Because of His grace,

Christy
