Hey Susie and Family,
I promised to send this
yesterday, but got distracted by visiting family. I want to share with
you something that our family has done for the past few years. I am
sharing this with you not because I want to "toot my own horn," so to
say, but because this is something that I believe that most any family
in the realm of people that we both know could do if they were to commit
to it.
We have an average-sized glass
pitcher, and we all put any loose change from around the house, car,
found on street, etc. into this pitcher daily. Amazingly, it gets full a
couple of times a year. We call it our "Change for Change" and as it
is filling up, we pray about who we will give it to when it starts to
overflow. We have found that God clearly shows us who to give it to
before the time comes, every time. This time, we knew that it would go
to your family. We never know how much will be in there, but it's
usually around $100.
So, yesterday {son} and I
took the change to the cool, free coin counter at the bank. You can
take a guess at how much is in there before it counts it, and {son}
guessed $110.58.
I have attached some pics of
this (yes, the bank ladies thought we were crazy) and the final amount.
This amount will be donated today for your family.
Again,
I'm telling you this only because I believe that if any of your friends
and family members were willing to do this, it could make a great
impact for your ministry in Guatemala. We are the ones who are blessed
by it, every time.
Much love to all of you.
"Change for Change" is such an encouragement to us. Love, love, love this!
