He funds what He Favors!

When Bret & I decided to lead this trip to 
Kenya to build a playground at this amazing 
orphanage called Fiwagoh,
we had 
NO IDEA what it would COST!

Seriously....
we are now still getting supply cost figures from
our contact in Kenya!

We picked the number $10,000
for the playground costs,
having NO IDEA
how we would 
raise that kind of money....
ON TOP of
raising over $10,000
for our three kids to be able to
make the trip with us!!

8 DAYS from now...
the first of our group head over
to start prepping for the full team and, as of TODAY...

our PLAYGROUND FUND is at - $9600
and our FAMILY FUND is at - $9500

WHAT AN AMAZING GOD we serve!

HE truly does FUND what 
HE - FAVORS!

We are HUMBLED and THANKFUL...

If you would like to contribute to the final funds needed
please go HERE
and choose - KENYA July 2012 - Waiting List
as the Fund Category

and either PERKEY FAMILY
or PLAYGROUND FUND
for the Team Member or Ministry Name.

THANK YOU for partnering with us, 
and allowing God to use YOU
to touch the lives
of so many children in Kenya!

We are now in...
 FULL PACKING MODE!!
The excitement is building
in our house
as we start pulling out all the donations,
clothes, toiletries, etc.
that must find their way into a suitcase
to head over the ocean!!

When all is said and done.....
I will have packed 20 bags!!!!!!!

We are continuing to raise the remainder of our support
needed, and trusting God in every detail.

Our team is working hard to collect
all the donations we are planning to take
to bless over 250+ orphans in Kenya!

How amazing to watch the Body of Christ
step up to the plate to love on the Fatherless!

Thank YOU for all  your support in so many ways!!

Tomorrow we will begin packing donation bags
 and praying we can fit
everything that needs to go.

It is SO hard to leave anything behind!

Please KEEP PRAYING for...
1. all funds to be raised
(for each team member and the playground supplies)
2. the airlines to release enough seats on an earlier flight into Nairobi
so our team does NOT have a LONG layover in Ethiopia!
3. the preparation of our hearts, emotions and health as we prepare to
be the hands and feet of Jesus.
(what an amazing & humbling job!)

Stay tuned.....
