Sponsorship update
Canadian Immigration halted all refugee travel from Ivory Coast until the new year. Sadly, that means Rita’s travel is delayed. In the meantime, our MP is lobbying on our behalf with Immigration in Ottawa to have Grace added to Rita’s file. We continue to work on the applications for Sarah’s three remaining daughters. We are just $1,800.00 short of our funding goal. Please mark your donations as “Refugee Fund”. Thank you to those who have given so generously. Please continue to pray for Sarah as she deals with health concerns. Pray for Grace as the separation from her family is difficult.
Financial:
