Please Pray for my financial situation. I need to raise another $700 and then my outreach portion is finished. This money helps pay for my time in Thailand. If you have any questions or want to talk to me, please email me at hjfgray@gmail.com

Who put the 'Fun' in fundraising?
I have found that fundraising is a very hard process. It can be extremely awkward to ask for money, or to feel like you are pushing an agenda. I have learned alot about prayer but then at the same time understanding that I have a part to do as well.
I like the story of the man that is constantly on his kness asking God to win the lottery. He prays this daily saying, “God please,please let...
