This is a sign that a girl made to help raise funds for the child her first grade class sponsors. Here's a note that was written to her teacher on the back...
"We just wanted to drop you a note to let you know how God used Heaven (changed name). Last Friday on the way home from school Heaven told us about the little girl in the DR that your class sponsors and said that she wanted to help. Heaven said she wanted to have a lemonade stand in front of our house. We discouraged her because of the weather.
We had been home about an hour when Heaven approached us with a sign that she had written. Her grandmother said she would help her make some brownies. Together they made two double batches of the brownies. Heaven informed us that her goal was one hundred dollars. We took turns accompanying Heaven door to door. When the last brownie was gone, she counted her money, she had $101.25.
Praise God!!!
I was so encouraged by this story. This first grader raised enough money for 3 months of support for their child here at Anija.
I got goose bumps! The selflessness of children is such a refreshing blessing from God! Thank you for sharing this letter!
