First let me say that I am sorry for not blogging these last couple of days, I have been in lots of pain and continue to be today. Unfortunately it is my other shoulder and arm that are causing me the problem, which is discouraging.
We had a moderately successful fundraising dinner. We ended up with only 20 or so people, we had hoped for and prepared for another 12-14. The good thing about our evening was new exposure to our ministry for some new folks unfamiliar with Boaz.
I was able to share about our upcoming Friday night teen drop in and before the night was over I was given $100 to be used for our first drop in. I also received a commitment for the sponsorship of two other nights for the drop in, so that was a positive. All told the night generated another $235 over and above the money for the drop in.
Special thanks to those who ministered on this evening through music. Steve Patterson was first rate and showed again his humble spirit. His daughter Taylor and friends Kaitlyn, Rachel and Rebecca entertained us with their talents. Thanks girls!
Lynn and Patrick along with Amanda and Eric did a great job providing an amazing meal for all of us. The spaghetti and sauces as well as the strawberry shortcake was incredible. I trust that even more folks will get on board with Trinitea's to support their ministry in our city.
So the countdown is on until Friday night where we launch our Boaz teen drop in. I am praying that we will make a difference in the lives of teens who are hurting and in need of encouragement. Will you join us in praying?
