Kenya Update!

Hi Friends!!

As of today we have raised... with your help and God's provision.... about $35,600!!!!!!!!!!!

This is 82% of our goal!!! AMAZING!Thanks be to God for his faithfulness!

And thank you for your obedience to help!

We only have a little bit more to raise (about $8,000). To do this, we are still receiving donations (through may 1st), we are selling t-shirts and collecting coins.If you are interested in making a donation to the team in general, please email me and I will explain how (just comment on this note and leave your email and I'll write back to you privately).

Additionally, at this point we are giving away free t-shirts for any donation of $15 or more. Of your $15 donation, $10 will go toward the trip and $5 will cover the cost of the t-shirt. Please make your checks payable to "Tiffani Riggers" (we will give one check to Baylor). If you live outside the Waco area, we may have to take $1-2 shipping out of your donation, so please consider that as you make out your check. Contact me (by leaving a comment) for more information about how to get a shirt, or contact the person you know on the Kenya Gen Min team. We anticipate raising between $1000 and $2000 with this effort - but we need your help!

Finally, we started collecting our "Koins for Kenya" cans and rolling the coins this week. So far we have rolled about $350 in change and are expecting to collect about $1,800 from this effort. Thank you so much for your donations! If you live in Waco and you still have spare change lying around, please either bring it to the Harris House (let them know its "Koins for Kenya") and they'll get it to us, or give it to your friendly Kenya-bound general ministry team-er. We are so grateful for the generousity of everyone who has tossed us their pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters (and sometimes 50-cent pieces!) - AND their paper money.

We are also getting ready spiritually, as we continue to work on our "I Believe" bible study weekly - learning about God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit as we work through the Apostle's Creed together each Sunday night.

Thank you for praying for us - that we will be prepared spiritually and emotionally for this trip.

I will post a second post in just a few minutes with a supply list, in case you want to donate money for specific supplies.Thanks for your continued support of us!

Love, Tiff
