Mattress update
Thank you to everyone who helped with the mattress money we have exceeded our goal! As soon as I get the debit card thing fixed Linda will be purchasing the mattresses. Thanks again it's amazing to see God work through His people.
Some would gather money
along the path of life,
some would gather roses
and rest from worldly strife;
but I would gather children
from among the thorns of sin,
I would seek a brownish curl,
and a freckled toothless grin.
For money cannot enter
in that land of endless day,
and roses that are gathered,
soon will wilt along the way.
But, oh, the laughing children,
as I cross the sunset sea,
and the gates swing wide to heaven
I can take them there with me!

We are followers and lovers of Jesus Christ who are trying to make a difference in His Kingdom. There is nothing special about us, except for our BIG God. He gives us these crazy ideas to minister to the children and staff at Lily and we try to follow His lead. It's a wild ride, but God is faithful.
