So a little story that happened this past week... One of my supervisors at the library had mentioned that he and his wife wanted to support me on my trip. And that his oldest son had also been saving money for me. Mr. McGrath's sons frequently hang out at the library in the afternoons, so I know them. Danner is nine (I think, if I get this wrong, he might take his support money back). And Garrison is six. They are two of the most amazing boys. We play random little games in the offices. And it's probably my fault more often than not that they get in trouble for being too loud. :-) Danner has been my buddy at work since I started there three years ago. He'd help me with my work tasks and tell me everything anyone would ever need to know about sharks. Danner is a super smart kid and his heart is in the right place. Very few nine year olds would give thought about supporting someone on a mission trip.

Danner's act of kindness really affected me this week. It's probably the best thing that has happened all week. Here I am, exactly 90 days until we leave for Lesotho. We are starting our training. We are all getting ready to minister to others and especially the children. And yet here a child is ministering to me. It is amazing how God works through others at just the right time.
Danner, thank you for your support. And thank you for the lesson you taught me in kindness.

Your comment this week was a lot different then last week! WOW! What a difference a week makes!
YOU GO GIRL!
On your next post you might mention you have received some other money then just that from the McGrath family, which is how you got from discouragement to only having $1000 left to raise.
Not necessarily metioning names just that you have received some more support!! Love ya, Mom :)
