Well, we had our garage sale yesterday. We made $355.40. Praise God! We have had several sales over the last 12 years at our house and they typically don't do very good. So we were excited to have made that much. We have a lot of stuff left and hopefully we will have a garage sale with the Hixons soon and raise even more money for our journey.
On a sidenote, we sold our Toyota this weekend for $2,200.00. Praise God. Now we just need our Ford Expedition to sell.
We were given some money this past week to use for supplies etc. for our trip this summer. We bought our new air matress last night for our "home sweet home" in the bush. These things are so heavy, it weighs 17 lbs. May not sound like a lot to you but when we are limited to 2 suitcases each that cannot weigh more than 50 lbs a piece, that's a lot. We usually have a bunch of ministry supplies to pack as well that we will use in our children's and women's ministries. So that 50 lb limit is not hard to meet. We are waiting to see if we are going to be affected with the new luggage rule ... paying for your checked bags. We will see. Only 47 days to go.
When Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:18-20
