Last year I was on my way to Thailand with my son and some of my friends. We were going to share life-giving words, and beautiful music, dance, and art to encourage 400 full-time missionaries stationed all over Southeast Asia. It had been almost 20 years since I had to raise money for one of these outreach-type trips. Last time, I was a single girl ministering and traveling full-time, with a church-family who was completely behind me and supportive. This time, I was a middle-aged mom traveling with her teen-aged son, well-supported by her husband. Raising money was a little more complicated.

With trepidation, the old-school fundraising letter was sent.....
Report after report showed monies coming in. I was blown away by the love and support from friends ALL OVER this country; people I love and who love me. It was encouraging and humbling.
I also decided to compile and sell some of my hymnal sketches in a calendar format. They were a hit! I became good friends with the girls at the print shop as orders came in daily. We fashioned our school-table into a temporary packing/shipping station, wrapping each calendar with care, sending them to people we love.
I daresay we've stumbled upon a new annual tradition!
