Fundraising Update

Many people have been asking me how fundraising is going, so I thought I'd post an update. Considering my goal was to write 2 days a week, I'm way behind anyway! Fundraising is going great! So far, I have raised $3200!! I am about 3/4 of the way to my goal. I feel so blessed by everyone's support and generosity!! I feel certain that I will meet the goal by October first. I have had a bit of a slow down, in that my sewing machine went kaput last night. It has been working HARD the past two months! I have to take it to get serviced and wouldn't you know but there is NO PLACE in Nashville that services Singer dewing machines...I mean, WHAT?!? If anyone out there has a knack for fixing sewing machines there is a market here in Nashville for Singers (sewing machines, that is)! you may want to jump on that! So, I have to drive to Murfreesboro, which is 45 minutes away to take my machine for servicing. The guy is way backed up (I mean, of course he is, he's only one of two people in TN that services Singer machines) so it's going to be 7-10 days to get it back. Ugh! I will still be taking orders, however, as I need to keep on trucking with this if my goal is to be met by October 1st (which is when the final payment is due!) So, prayers for QUICK servicing, please!! And prayers orders to keep on coming in! Also, Plane tickets are being purchased next week! Please pray for LOW airfare, as this will help keep the overall cost of the trip down! Thanks so much for your continued support and prayers!
