We met together with the couple whose wedding we will be shooting this weekend to discuss final details and they surprised us by sharing that they have decided to sponsor the 1000 Words of Hope Project on a monthly basis. This will be our first official monthly sponsorship and our letters have not even been mailed yet! Again we see clearly that God is moving ahead of us, constantly affirming his desire that we devote ourselves to this work.
It is comforting to hear others' support and excitement for this project. We are always excited about it and our thoughts about the growth of the organization or our next trips are always rattling around in our heads, but there is nothing like hearing someone else who understands what we are trying to accomplish affirm the importance of the work we are doing. This couple is so excited about the project that they have offered us the opportunity to display some of the pictures we took on our trip to Ghana during their reception. What a great opportunity to share the vision that God has given us both for future shoots in the US and trips abroad to give family photos to those who would otherwise not have them.
It is so exciting to see God working around every corner. I am convinced that my life before lacked the faith necessary to see God's hand in this way. But by jumping into this project head-on, Elizabeth and I have left ourselves with nothing but faith to rely and literally live on. I believe it is the greatest decision we have ever made together, and being apart of this work has truly changed our lives and perspectives forever.
