Results from the Garage Sale, Take Two Event

Well... drum roll...

It was a REALLY slow day compared to the day when we advertised two weeks ago. However, as we began to pack up, the last hour we sold nearly $100! ($60 to just ONE family!)

There were a few things that were picked up or are yet to be picked up by people who have not paid equaling about $85. The money we collected for items equaling $235. So, if we count and collect the $85, we would have collected...$320! Waahoo!!!

What about the leftover goodies??? We have separated most of the t-shirt and shorts from the clothing, and today, we have a group from the church that are going to a local soup kitchen to serve where they will distribute these. The other clothes and items will go to either another family hoping to adopt or a friend who is collecting things for a garage sale to raise money to make memory boxes for parents who miscarry. I've been contacted by one of the individuals already and will arrange a pick up time for next week.

So, thank YOU ALL for your prayers and donations! What a blessing to our family! We appreciate your continued prayer and encouraging thoughts!
