Yard Sale Approaches

"Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know."  -Jeremiah 33:3

This really is my verse of the past week and a half as God has really been showing us He does answer prayers if we would just call out to Him and trust Him and His timing. This is going to be kind of short post (I know, a post from me that is short?) as I mostly just wanted to update everyone on all of the amazing things that have happened since my last post. 

After sending out some more emails about the yard sale we are having to raise money for my sister and I to go to Africa, people just really started reaching out to us to make donations for our sale. So much so that my garage is now so overflowing and we are still going through all of the donations! That is so amazing considering we had just had a few families donate to our sale when I last posted. 

Here is a few photos for you to see what I am talking about. 


Just a few of the clothes we received that we decided to hang up.


We also received strollers (as you can see the double here), booster seats, infant car seats, a tote full of helmets and rollerblades.


I am just in awe of all the families that have reached out to us and want to help support our mission. For those of you who have donated, we are so humbly grateful. For those of you who are praying for our yard sale, the prayers can be felt. I continue to just feel a peace from God through all of this, even though it has been incredibly stressful and hectic to put all of this together. 

I want to put a few details about the actual yard sale for all of my local friends who may want to come out to support us. Feel free to pass this link along to anyone who may want to come support us. 

The sale is at 4511 Fox Meadows Lane, Mansfield, TX. It will be from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. both Friday and Saturday, May 4 and May 5. We have lots and lots of clothing some of it really nice!! There is such a variety of sizes of the clothing, boys and girls, men and women, and lots and lots of shoes. We also have televisions, printers, a DVD player, phones, speakers, other electronics, lots of baby, toddler and kid toys, toddler ride-ons, scooters, roller blades, helmets, a train table, a lot of bedding, and much more. Also, we have two infant car seats in good condition (one is only 2 years old) and a stroller travel system that goes with it. We also have several booster seats and strollers and baby items. We will also have some furniture, including an entertainment center and a loveseat. 

That is it for today's update. So please, please, please keep praying for us that we have a good turn out for our sale and we raise some good money for our trip. Next time I can't wait to update you on how everything went!!
