It's looking good!

Good news, folks! A couple of generous donations have recently been pledged so we're up to about $12,000. Praise our faithful God and let's give thanks for the compassionate people making this dream come true! We need $20,000 to secure the house and they need to move out of the current location in the next two weeks. That means this week we're looking for about $8,000 more to come in so that by the end of January we can send off the first installment.

We're putting profiles together on each of the children so that a sponshorship organization can find school sponsors for them. It's amazing to read where each child came from. The stories of abuse and sickness and family deaths make what's happening at the House of Hope shine even brighter. Won't it be a great day when they have a house of their own?!!

Now is the time

Hi folks! Thanks to all who have contributed to the project so far! I don't have a current total handy, but I think we're at about $5000. February is soon now and that means the orphanage needs to move out of their current location in the next few weeks!

The sellers are asking for $20,000 in order to secure the new house. Know anyone who would like to make a contribution NOW? Please continue to pray for the funds to come in and for the orphans and workers to have peace and wisdom in this tumultuous time.

The time is now

Hey folks! Thought I'd update where we are in our fundraising. Need a nifty thermometer or something to show the progress, but for now here's what we've got:



Total Needed: $47,000
Down payment needed ASAP: $12,000
Total as of now: $1,829.40

So if you're thinking of giving we really do need you! Please continue to pray for the House of Hope.
