And The Winner Is......

So, the time has come to pick the winner of the "Back to Africa" giveaway! I really enjoyed hearing about all of the ministries y'all love and the ways God has allowed you to serve others. Perfect examples of how we are the hands and feet God uses to reach others!

Some of you mentioned ministries overseas that minister to overlooked, difficult to reach people. Some of you shared about churches that minister in your area. And some of you shared personal ways that you minister on a one on one basis. I loved that we got responses that covered all of those because I love being able to feel like a part of big, global missions, but also meet the needs of those right around us. There are certainly enough needs to go around!

Well, I will get onto what you've been waiting for. The winner! I would just like to say that this person was obviously meant to win. You see, this drawing was the excitement of our house tonight (it and bake and break cookies) so we actually did the drawing early because I hadn't had any new comments all day. Then, after we did the drawing, I got another comment! So, we redrew (is that a word?) and it was the SAME person! Here is the highly professional way Speaking the Truth in Love and Laughter randomly chose our first ever giveaway winner.....


                      Yep, we chose a name out of a bowl. We are a first class, high tech organization around here.

                                                  And the winner (both times!) is.......

Um, in case you can't read that it says LORI! Lori at The Foremans wins a necklace from Back to Africa!

This giveaway has been so much fun for me. Hopefully I can do another in the future. Thanks so much for all who played along!
