This was the flyer for the fundraiser that I just had. You would think the story behind it would be the obvious...needing funds for Thailand but it was actually a test of obedience. This was my first summer here in Kingston and I don't know a lot of people but the Lord kept putting it on my heart to hold a fundraiser. It was something I did not want to do for many reasons. To name a couple, I have no experience with raising funds nor did I feel like I had any resources to work with. The Lord simply gave me the parable of feeding the 5,000. They did not have much in the beginning but as they gave it to Jesus and he blessed it, he also multiplied it. So I started this new event with that in mind, I don't have many resources/experience to offer but I know you can multiply it. With that said although this fundraiser was about raising funds I knew that before it started it didn't matter how much money would be raised..to me it was already a success because I was doing what he asked me to do. I give thanks for the MANY people at my job, new/old friends in Kingston and family who joined together to make it above and beyond what I thought it could ever be. With God all things are possible and one more time I am in awe of not what I have done but what he has done through me and many others. Thank you Hope For Change International, Mariner's Harbor and ALL the others who contributed.
