Fundraising letters are hair raising :)

I tried to send out a mass e-mail and it bounced back and then I tried to past a picture of Uganda on it and it wouldn't stick! Argh!!!
Lets see  - will it work to copy past into this blog? Hmmmm, not bad.

Dear Friends and Family,

 Thank you for taking the time to read this letter.  And thanks to all for your support of our family over the years. By your prayers and gifts, we have been successful in setting Mike & Whitney on their own adventures.  Mike in the Peace Corps and Whitney a Pediatric Nurse!

v  On January 3^rd, we plan to join a group headed for Uganda to spend time with the orphans and to do some of the early work on a Medical Clinic in Zziba.

v  In the village of Zziba, Uganda, we support 34 orphans living at the orphanage as well as many children in the community that Zziba church supports.

v  OBM’s goal is to provide resources like education & skill training giving these individuals the tools they need to become self-sustaining and radically increase their options for the future. http://www.olivebranchministries.net/. 

v  Can you please support our mission either by a gift of money or prayer or both.
Even a small gift will make a huge difference.
The cost for each person is approximately $2700. This includes the airfare, hotel and food. We are also hosting a fundraiser on November 12^th to raise $10,000 to benefit the Medical Clinic project directly.
