I have the privilege of being the Pre-K director at Park Christian School. Over the past month, Park students and families have been collecting "Coins for Baby Keller." Each of the grades, Pre-K through 3rd grade have been collecting spare change as a fundraiser for Jack and I to be able to bring Baby Keller home. It has been amazing to see the joy and excitement of the children as they have brought in their baggies full of pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters and dollars.
Two children gave their allowance to Coins for Baby Keller for two weeks straight, two other girls held a lemonade stand in order to raise money. Children emptied out their piggy banks and did extra chores around the house to raise extra money to bring in. Jack and I were beyond blessed to see the eagerness these children had to give.
Today at chapel, Jack and I were awarded over $1700.00 that the children had raised! Amazing! Needlesstosay, we were speechless and found it hard to have the words to offer adequate thanks. Our God is our Provider - how amazing that He used each child and family in this journey to bring Baby Keller home!
The blessings continued to pour down as we discovered that all of the news stations and also the local newspaper were at chapel! God provided yet another opportunity for Jack and I to speak out about adoption and advocate for these children. What an amazing opportunity God gave us to further spread the message of adoption!
To God be the glory!!
