Raising Money for a Precious Baby's Memory

Back in August, Laura (my sister in law's sister) lost her precious 6-week baby boy Jaxon to SIDS.  Her local church paid for all the funeral and service expenses except for his headstone which costs $1599.  I have never raised that kind of money before, but I felt the Holy Spirit calling me, well, more like pushing me to take on the task of raising this money.  Putting my trust in God, I sent out an email this week asking for people to help in this cause.  I have had so many emails and people verbally saying they want to help.  I have a great GOD!  So when I went to the mailbox today, I was so excited to find a check (the first one) from a dear friend of mine, that I haven't seen in over a year, but have known since high school and we were also roommates in college.  GOD is GOOD.

Here are some pics of baby Jax.  He might not have been here long on this earth but the short time he was here he touched so many lives.
