I am just so blessed to read all those emails!
Our ministry email has a limit so today I was trying to get rid of some. In the process of doing so, I had to quickly sort through each email and wow... since we started telling people about BABYANNE'S MANSION in 2005, it has been amazing! I am amazed at how people were willing to give to a group of (young) girls whose organization couldn't even issue tax receipts yet due to the fact that we weren't a registered charity at the time. Wow. All I could say is that it is such a God-thing =)
And whenever we needed something - volunteers for our launching event, money for our marketing campaign, or Board of Directors - there are all these people who emailed and openly expressed how they wanted to help. Sometimes we don't even ask for anything and simply share what's been going on and people still email to say that they want to give something. *sigh* what am amazing God we truly have! and I know that it's like the 4th time I've said that word (amazing) but wow... all I could really say as I read those emails was, "I am so blessed."
I am just so thankful to God for bringing all those people to this ministry cuz wow, every need is met (k, I know I've said "wow" a lot too but I don't know what else to say.. I am just amazed <- haha, there's that word again).
1 Thessalonians 5:18 says that we are to be THANKFUL in all circumstances cuz that is how God wants us, who are in Christ Jesus, to live. I pray that this ministry will never stop thanking God for all that He has done.
And to all of you who have supported us from the very beginning, THANK YOU SO MUCH.
