Thank you all to who supported this fund raiser by going to Papa Gino's today! We raise close to $70.00. Not bad when the only thing you need to do is eat pizza.
Through our fund raising efforts Pastor Frank (I pray) purchased land yesterday for the orphans. He put a down payment of a $1,000 dollars and I am hoping to pay off the difference of $1100.00 by the end of September.
The next fund raiser is at the Flat Bread Pizza in Bedford August 26, 2008.
$3.00 per large pizza and $1.75 per small pizza will be donated to the land/building for the orphans.
I will be there from 5:00 to closing so if you come I am sure to see you! We will be selling our paper dolls and having a 50/50 raffle (you don't have to be there to win) as well as showing a video of the trip. (Not the video that will be played at the Mission night)
September 16th we will be having a Fund Raiser at the Chateau in Waltham 5:00- 8:00 25% of the proceeds will go to the orphans.
September 19th at Trinity Covenant Church we will be hosting a Mission night. I will talk about the trip and show a video, we will also eat. What is a fund raiser without food. The cost for this has not been determined yet it depends on what we will be eating. (between 5 and 8 dollars per person would be my guess) If you attend this you will be able to get a sneak peak at the Gifts from around the world Arts and Craft sale. It will be opened for an hour before the dinner and and hour after the dinner.
September 20th at Trinity Covenant Church we will be hosting the Gifts from around the world Arts and Craft sale. (Including Lexington and Waltham etc....)

Orphan Update
I received an update from Pastor Frank yesterday. The renovations are not taking place at the school because the landlord is selling the land. They will be uprooted by the end of the year.
They are looking into a 3 year lease to set up a temporary structure. I am praying that that we can get the resources to buy the land for them. $10,000 dollars will buy the land.
They are doing a Gospel Crusade in the village to bring the word of the Lord to the adults in the village. He plans to provide the children with the gifts we shiped to them at that time. They are inviting officials to witness this event so they will be able to see what the JPC and the Christian Academy are doing for the community. Please pray this is successful the Christian Academy is in jeopardy of being shut down. I truely wish I could be there.
