Something to share


Dear Tremendous Friends,

Would you please take another few minutes to read this post? I would be so thankful.

So just a little check in to remind you that next Tuesday is Giving Tuesday and as I mentioned a few posts ago, I am gathering money for the second year in a row to donate to the truly incredible organization Mary's Meals. And I thought I would take a quick chance to tell you a little bit more about it. And to announce something on our end that I hope and pray will make you all anxious to share even just a few dollars.

So, some of you may remember in my last post that I mentioned that if you wanted to pray about possibly contributing a little bit to this organization and ask God if that’s what He wanted you to do, that would be absolutely wonderful. Jacob and I did just that. And what our Father in Heaven told us is that He would like us to match every penny that comes through from all of you, from the second I made this year’s announcement until the end of your donations. So not only will your contributions be matched five times by an anonymous donor through Mary’s Meals, but before that even happens, Jacob and I will double every dollar you send our way. I don’t share that to make that into anything great about us, quite the contrary. It makes me emotional that my God asked us to do such a sweet thing and I’m so humbled to do it. I wasn’t even going to mention it, but my heart not only felt like I should, but if ten more dollars comes in because we are going to double all contributions, then it is worth me being uncomfortable with this sharing.

Okay darling people, I would love if you would watch my stories throughout today and I will be sharing some amazing things about Mary’s Meals, alongside some of my favorite photos I took while in Zambia, so that you can more fully see what we have known for a long time. Mary’s Meals is inspired of God, they praise and honor Him in everything they do, they are changing the world, and the fact that they allow us be a small part of it is truly humbling and beautiful. I’m so thankful.

With great love and gratitude,
Linn
