Fundraising...it feels like a bad word!

We are in this waiting phase...waiting for a match!  While we wait, life goes on.  We are constantly busy with our 4 children and all the craziness that goes along with that.  Then...there is the fundraising!  That word is so difficult for me.  I know I've talked about this before but, I really struggle with fundraising.  I trust that God will provide for this adoption because He has called us to it.  I also trust that other people "want" to be a part of this process.  BUT, none of that makes this any easier.  The reality is that we have to raise about $25000 MORE!  Let me tell you we have seen God move mountains thus far!  He has been so incredibly faithful and provided everything we have needed as we have needed it.  So why is it so difficult to believe He can provide this?!  It's a HUGE amount of money!  I battle with feeling like we are the ones adopting and it's our responsibility to pay for it VS knowing that pe...
 The girls are HOME!! We brought the girls home at the end of October!  They are doing really well and everything feels so natural!  Glory to God for bringing everything together in HIS time! The last few weeks before we brought the girls home were probably the hardest few weeks of our lives.  I can honestly say that was the hardest thing I have ever done!  The emotional ups and downs were off the chart!  Greg and I tried to jump in front of God...hindsight is 20/20!  Once we were able to back up and just wait on His timing, everything came together! We took Eli with us to pick up the girls!  He was such an incredible help and blessing!  I can't imagine the trip without him!   We want to thank you all for your love and support over the last 4 years!  The journey was long and had many turns and twists!  We are beginning a new journey as a family of 9 now!  We will continue to covet your prayers as we all adjust to our ...
We have finally entered IBESR!  The wait is on!!  What does that mean?  Our paperwork is in the system in Haiti and they can start considering us for a match! We are expecting that this could take a while...up to 3 years!  However, God is in control and we are comfortable waiting for HIS Timing! I have had several people ask if we were still fundraising.  We are continuing to fundraise.  We have an account set up with Life Song if you would like to make a tax deductible donation (https://mystory.lifesongfororphans.org/stories/called-adopt-2-maybe-3-kids-haiti/)!  We are applying for grants (we have received a couple :)  )!  We are trying to give everyone a break while we wait.  It is exhausting and humbling to ask people for money!!  We will have a large chunk of money due when we do get our match.  I have a few t-shirts left if anyone is interested, email me at tonyamfink@Gmail.com. Shirts available $20 each: Blue- 4 l...
