Adoption Fundraiser for the Rycheners!
The following is a copy and paste from the blog of some dear friends of ours, Josh and Janelle Rychener. There's also a link for them on my blog if you look directly to your left! They are hosting a fund raiser for their little boy, soon to be joining them from Ethiopia! See below for details, or click on their site to follow their journey start to finish.
*************************************************************************************
We are on a journey to adopt a little boy from Ethiopia. Wanna help? As you know, I'm a little gun-shy about fundraisers, but it looks like we found something that will work for us! Hooray! Minimal stress, no baking and zero trips to Vegas. Thank you, Lord. In short, we are partnering with a ministry called 147 Million Orphans, which was started by two moms who met while adopting their own children. They are doing all kinds of awesome things to stand up for the fatherless, including helping adoptive families raise money for adoption. Standing ovation, please!!!
So, here is the deal:
1. Check out their website at www.147millionorphans.com
2. Click on 147 Gear.
3. Check out the t-shirts! Very cool!
4. If you want to purchase a t-shirt (women's, men's, youth), e-mail or call us (janellerychener@yahoo.com or 907.347.9767) and let us know name of the shirt/size/your address.
5. We will place the order for you and we'll receive $10-$12 for our adoption for every t-shirt sold. (We can place an order once we have 20 items to order. Just so you know you won't get it tomorrow. Sorry. :o))
6. Send a check to us for the t-shirt/shipping and we'll get the shirt to you.
7. Please Note: prices range from $19.95 to $39.95. There are other cool items on the website also, but only the t-shirts are available for fundraising purposes. We have to order for you so that they know it is part of the adoption fundraising. Right now it only specifies one t-shirt as being available for fundraising, but really all the t-shirts are available.
8. Feel free to re-post this on your blog. Facebook it. Twitter it. Put it in your church bulletin. Tell your friends. Tell your relatives. Even the ones you don't like could surely use a new t-shirt! :o) THANK YOU!!!!
We are in the midst of a mass of paperwork for our home study. We are hoping to have the first payment and contract sent in to AGCI soon. Our goal is to have the dossier and home study completed by the end of March. Please, please pray for us. Thanks so much!!
Lots of love,
Janelle and family
