A HUGE campaign for a HUGE goal

As I sit at my kitchen table this gorgeous April Sunday afternoon, listening to a baseball game and sipping iced tea, I'm pulling my nose out of analytics and goal setting spreadsheets to jot an update to our Prayer Partners. The Lord has been gently reminding me this week that we are all so precious to Him. He delights in us, His children. And He cares so deeply for His daughters who grew up at Faith Home. What a privilege it is to be part of His plan for their lives through Alegria!

Yesterday, I prayed as I went to set up at an event that He would bless Alegria with $1,000 in sales. So many wonderful people came by, ladies who had never heard of Alegria, and others that stop and shop every time they see me at a pop-up. As we were winding down, I glanced and realized we were at about $750. I told God that was OK and we might have others shop online that didn't shop at the event. It was still a good event for a spring market. And then a family came in and I told them about Alegria...mom was in love and did some mother's day gift shopping...now we're at $965! Oh Lord, you are good!  And the day ended, tear down started, but one more young lady stopped in and picked out a bracelet...$1000.66 is how we ended. Boy doesn't He just love to hear and answer our prayers when we are praying in His will for His daughters?!

Today I'm finishing up the strategy for May, and our huge goal.  Prayer Partners, when He answers this prayer and we hit this goal, we will be able to hire a new artisan!  Oh wouldn't that just be the best way to end May?!  I want to ask you to pray specifically for this. It would require that we sell approximately 1,917 pieces of jewelry in May (that's almost as much as we sold in the entire year of 2021). At the end of that goal, a life, a family will be forever changed! We are going to call her "A" and I'm asking you would pray specifically for her this month as we work so hard to be in the position to pay her salary and benefits.

Before the first ad runs, the first post is made, or the first email goes out, we lift this up to you Lord. We are asking on behalf of "A" and our other 7 women in Honduras that currently are employed by Alegria that you would help us to hit this goal together of 1,917 pieces of jewelry sold.  You know the dollar amount needed for this to be a sustainable job. Without you, God, this is impossible. But with You, nothing is impossible. We see a mountain, but you are the mountain mover. We have faith in You. Move on behalf of your daughters in Honduras. Move on behalf of "A".
