The Big Event

Hey Friends,

Well, YWAM emailed me an acceptance package. It's full of all kinds of goodies like lists on what to bring, visa application DOs and DON'Ts and their rules, regulation and policies. A hard copy has been sent to me as well. It's just another reminder that this is legit, it's actually happening! It's crazy to think that in less than two months I'll be leaving the country that I love in full unadulterated pursuit of the heart of God! Then, in less than five months, I'll be leaving the continent that I love, with the same zeal, in pursuit of the heart of the nations!

On to the reason for this entry: Now that I've realized that this isn't simply a dream in my heart anymore, but an approaching reality, there's work to be done! I've got to get support raising!

So, in an effort to spread awareness and help fundraise, I will be holding an open-house at my home on Sunday November 21 from 1-4 pm. Lunch will be offered. There will be treats for sale and items for raffle and silent auction. Plus, as a special highlight at 3 o'clock, there will be a live auction of "An Evening of Funk and Power". You can bid on having the opportunity to have Jordin and Andrew, two strapping young men come to your house, cook dinner, clean up and entertain for you! What could be better?

As it is an open-house, you are free to come and go when you please. Winners of all raffles and silent auctions will be announced at 3:30, but you be will notified if you have left by that time. Tickets will be $3.00 or 4 for $10.00. There will be a box for donations as well.

If you would like to support me financially but are unable, or don't feel called, to do so in a big way, the open-house is a great chance to donate through buying tickets and bidding on items. If you would life to hear more about YWAM from me, this is also an excellent opportunity.

The more successful the turnout, the closer I am to reaching my goal. I sincerely hope to see you there. If you need information on how to get my to home please feel free to email me (kathleenf29@hotmail.com).

Thanks for reading,
God bless!
