"What can I do?"

First, a word of gratitude to everyone who has been so gracious and generous as our family continues to work toward adopting Garrick. Your encouragement and support of us is so uplifting during a very stressful process.

We have a long way to go, so I wanted to let everybody know about a few projects we're involved in as we continue to get closer to bringing Garrick home.

First, We will be having a large yard sale this summer June 26 &27, where all proceeds will go toward our adoption travel expenses. Any items you would like to get rid of to donate to our sale will be greatly appreciated! We can pick them up (if they fit in our car) or arrange a drop off time. During the sale, if you have time and want to help us or just come give some encouragement we would love that!

Second, we are partnering with Just Love Coffee Roasters. You know Steven and I love coffee so this is a perfect partnership. If you order coffee through our page, a portion of the money will go toward our adoption. So if you want to help out with our adoption while also drinking delicious organic, Fair Trade coffee (they have K-Cups!), feel free to click the link and order something. It costs the same as coffee at the grocery store.

Third, we will be featured on Saturday July 25th at Righteous Que, our local BBQ restaurant. They have graciously offered to donate 10% of their profit for that day to our adoption! So please come out, bring your friends and join us for some good BBQ!

Fourth, a few years ago Steven and his friend Aaron recorded a worship album titled The Well. They are offering that album on Bandcamp for $5.00 (or more if you so choose). Go here to listen and buy.

So in summary, here are all the available ways to contribute (of course, please feel free to give nothing at all; we do not feel entitled to anyone's generosity; this is only for people who want to do something)-

Donate items to our Yard Sale or come help with the sale.

Thank you so much for your interest and your support. I'm sure we will be doing lots of other fundraising activities up until we leave for China. But these are just a few things that are active now.
Grace and peace be with you.

Steve & Christa
