Grace Flows Down : A Fundraiser Update

We've had a crazy whirlwind week since our amazing fundraiser last weekend and, although we are still processing what happened that night, I have a few minutes to be still this morning before church.  We were hugely blessed in a number of ways that night.  God showed up in a BIG way.  If it's possible to plan an event and have it turn out (logistically speaking) just as we imagined, then that's what we got.  It was so fun to see many of our favorite people together on stage and mingling in the audience.  I couldn't stop smiling from the time rehearsal began at 3pm to the time we left at 10:30.  The Holy Spirit was definitely within our midst and you are all evidence of His great love.  THANK YOU for being Jesus with skin on!!  We fell to our knees as we realized that we had surpassed our fundraising goal for the night and, in fact, probably do not need to worry about fundraising the rest of the way!  Wow. God provided abundantly more than we could ever ask or imagine.  And, to tell you the truth, it makes me wonder if He is giving us 3 kiddos instead of the 2 we are praying for!  That would certainly make it interesting around here.  One more bit of news this week.  We got our immigration approval on Thursday so now we just have to gather a few papers to apostille and we will be officially listed with the country and then we can begin our "official" wait.
