Our fundraiser for Mexico City is participating in the city-wide garage sale.  Here's what Rhett shared with the group about the donations coming in:

The pile in the warehouse is growing even as you are reading this!  There is a lot of stuff.  Some good stuff.  Some great stuff.  Some people have dropped off things and said to me "Well I didn't know if this should be thrown away-but"  I told them we are taking everything so give it to me.  I know the last two years I was shocked to see what really is treasure to some people.  God definitely has His hands in this and it is very exciting to see it at work.  I should have been giving you updates throughout the week telling you what God has brought here. 

 

Here are just a few 'fun things in my eyes'.

 

• Church tables (First Baptist gave us 6 tables to use and gave us orders to sell them, they don't want them back!)
• A welder – should put on it "Recommended donation $100"
• $100 dollars came in already for a car clean! Thanks Shane! – Jennifer if you want me to make this into the change I have it here-let me know a.s.a.p.
• A 1999 all wheel drive Dodge Minivan.  It wouldn't run properly until Bob Frieden found a decent battery to put in it.  Thank you Bob it now runs!  It does have a transmission leak.  This potentially could be a problem to a buyer.  I called the salvage yard in Fayette and he said he would give at least $600 for it – up to $800.  I think we should make sure we get at least $600 out of it.  Otherwise I will take it to Fayette on Monday.
• Snow blower – it wouldn't run until Bob took it home and worked on it.  Again – Thank you Bob!!
• Clothes!  YEA!
• The oldest baseball glove I have ever seen.  Think Babe Ruth.  Nick tried it out and it works great.
• T.V.'s, a fridge, a bed, bikes, a lawn mower, and lots of other ..things or treasures..makes me think of the one treasure we all should be striving for.

 
We're praying for $5400 to come in.  I bet we have that much stuff in the warehouse now.  There are no prices set, but some suggested donations on the bigger items. 
 
Lord, we're praying that You will show up, that Your will be done and that You will be glorified!
