That would bring my fundraising to around $1000. So, if 75 people donated $20 each to my trip, then I would undoubtedly be able to go.
When looking at the "I need $2500," I'm sure a lot of people think that what they are able to give wouldn't put a dent in the fundraising. But trust me, every single cent helps.
So I'm asking and hoping and praying, that I could see 75 people pledge $20 to my trip. Trust me, it would not be a wasted effort. Considering I have 481 friends on Facebook currently, I don't think it's an impossibility to see this happen.
Even if your finances only allow you to give less than that $20, I wouldn't discourage your giving. Remember:
Jesus looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the offering box, and he saw a poor widow put in two small copper coins. And he said "Truly, I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all of them. For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on."
Now, I'm obviously not telling you to give your last cent to my trip. But Jesus made it clear, that what you give will be blessed. So, think about what you can give to my trip.
==============================
On a completely unrelated note, I will be updating this blog with more writings. I have neglected to make regular posts, but I'm feeling the fire to write again. I'm working on my Chapel for class, and I feel like I will need to expound on that through here. So look forward to it.
