Stahlke Adoption

Thank You

At lunch today, I opened the monthly envelope from Trinity that contains my paycheck. There were actually two checks enclosed, and the second one gave the $88 balance left in the Stahlke Adoption Fund.

Total contributions to the fund exceeded $25,000. That's pretty close to the expenses of Mikola's adoption. What a great blessing to him and to us. We had refinanced our house to raise funds for the 2005 adoption, and that was not possible again.

Many, many generous people gave money, time, hard work, gifts-in-kind,and prayers to bring Mikola here. We are grateful.
