News from Mary's House project

It's not over till it's over! God is working through this project! The August 1 goal was set with high expectations, and we almost made it in time! From July 20 to July 29, you donated over $10,000. Our local churches have boosted our efforts tremendously and are still sending sizeable donations. The Mary's House Committee wishes to thank each and every one of you so much for taking our project to heart and responding so quickly and with such Christian love.

The response from the community and the readership of ColumbiaMagazine.com has been absolutely amazing. Hats off to everyone. Where would we be now without CM readers' help and our faith in the good Lord! Thank you, Ed.

To those of you who are still interested in giving, please do so. The building project will not begin until we have reached and banked the entire $40,000. We are still short approximately $8,000. Extra money received will be deposited and kept for future building expenses; and, if not needed in that area, can definitely be applied towards the purchase of appliances and/or furniture.

The building of Mary's House is going to happen. It is not too late to come "on board" to help this beautiful family. If 400 people gave $20, our goal would be met. - Fran
