Hello dear friends! I cannot begin to tell you how completely overwhelmed we've been the last week or two. God has continued to move on behalf of Dogwood Ranch in some incredible ways.
A HUGE thank you goes out to Suzanne and the girls at BLOOM for all that they did for us last week. They pulled together a meeting for us of approximately 16 people. The goal was simple, get the word out. The results have been that the word is seriously out. We met with a handful of people before and after church on Sunday that are interested in being a part of the process and who share our vision. In fact, no matter where we go, we are meeting people who have always wanted to do something similar. It really seems like God is refueling the hearts of His people with an urgency to do something about the foster care situation in our country.
Last week, we started our journey towards being licensed by NC as foster parents. Whether or not it is necessary, it should provide us with a framework for understanding the needs in our area. Our classes should start in the next week. We are excited!
Our website is officially under construction!! :-) We will be www.DogwoodRanchCarolinas.com. Frank and I will have our emails plus an info email address up tonight. (frank@dogwoodranchcarolinas.com, etc) Feel free to test them tomorrow so that we know they are working. As soon as we have those, I will get our Facebook page up. IT IS SO FUN TO HAVE TANGIBLE THINGS...EVEN IF THEY'RE LITTLE.
One thing I would like for you all to concentrate on praying about this week....LAND. Those who came to the meeting last week, and those who couldn't make it, are all on an no holds barred search for land. We have so many things ready to be implemented as soon as we have a place to pursue as our own. God knows the details, we just need to be lead to the right spot.
Thanks to all of you for your prayers and support. Dogwood Ranch feels like it is so close! Blessings upon blessings to all of you!
