As money came in, I added it to the list. According to my earlier estimates, the adoption fund was around $12,800-ish.
We have now reached a point where we must calculate this number a little differently. Funds have come into the bank or church where in some cases, we know who it came from and in other cases we don't (such as a cash donation). Basically we now have to add up what we know has been spent along with what is available at the bank. This being said, we know that since the decision was made to Adopt Yuri on April 13, 2007 at 6:30:00 PM, $15,768 has been raised. WOW! Praise God!
Thank you very much to everyone who has contributed in any way, shape or form to this adoption. Prayers, time, donations... May the Lord bless everyone whose hand is on the plow of His work.
