A Little Is A Lot

$1,100 by June 17th.

As of today, that is how much I still need in monthly support.

That's a big number.
It looks scary.
No one can cover that kind of expense.

But let's break it down.

$1,100 per month is the same as...

          11 people giving $100 per month.
          (Just eleven people and I could be 100% supported!)
or
          22 people giving $50 per month.
or
          5 people giving $100 per month and 12 people giving $50 per month.

Hey, that sounds more manageable. Could you be one of those 11 people? Are you one of the 22?


$1,100.

Let's break it down even more.

That's 55 people giving just $20 a month.
 
          The cost of one less fancy coffee per week.
          One less evening out at the movie theater.
          Choosing to pack your lunch once a week rather than eating out.

Well, that's not so scary anymore! That seems doable.

Can you commit to $20 a month?
Or maybe you're able to give $50 a month to help create a ministry for single mothers in Uganda like my friend Rhona.
What about $100 a month to minister to the abandoned babies my friend Laura cares for and work to keep families together in the first place?

$1,100 seems like a lot.
22 days is a short period of time.
But when you break it down and many people are willing to give a little, miracles happen.
Two fish and five loaves can feed thousands.

It's people just like you that make it possible for me to go serve and advocate for women, children, and families in Uganda. Will you consider joining my monthly support team?

A little can go a long way.
