Tickets bought!

So we've got 10 people committed to going to Pearlington in December. There are two people that are still considering going. They better get on it! ;)

We've had two PayPal donations from KPIG listeners. Thanks! Ralphie is on his way to raising his funds!

I was doing the math the other day and over the 9 trips we've taken from April 2006 to April 2010, we've raised $102,000. That's pretty impressive! It makes a mere $8250 seem like a drop in the bucket. Let's get the fundraising going!

Speaking of fundraisers, if you are in the mood to do a little Flea Market shopping, stop by the church on Saturday. We'll be hosting a Flea Market from 8am-3pm. Proceeds will benefit the Mississippi and Brazil Mission Teams. It's so nice to work together!

And coming soon we hope to announce a fun fundraiser in the beginning of November. Keep watching this space for more information!

It's the little things...

that make me happy! Like airfare for $294 round trip! I LOVE SOUTHWEST AIRLINES! Two free checked bags makes me even happier!

Ellen, Jeff and I are going for sure!

The first donation has arrived! Thanks to Hour, a KPIG listener, for supporting Ralph Anybody. Our fundraising has officially begun!

Guess I had better get the Fundraiser Thermometer up!

And it begins...

We have begun the planning process for trip #10 to Pearlington. We'll be going December 16-24. Things are coming together, piece by piece but the big piece remains...will the jobs be ready when we get there?

Time to pray!

EDITED TO ADD:
Blessing #1 just occured. The homeowner of the rental houses that we stay in, just knocked off about $250 from our rent for the week. Can't recommend vrbo.com enough to people! Thanks Chuck!
