Dear Friends,

We come to you in great need of your mercy.

For a couple of years now we have been struggling to pay the bills. We are in debt and have drained any savings. Last week Justin got a new job. Nothing fancy, but it would pay the bills. We were so excited.

Justin's new job turned out to be an elaborate scam. We lost the very little money we had and are now negative $3000+ in our bank account. We have hit rock bottom. (There is a possibility we could get this money back, but don't know if or when that might happen).

Thankfully we already have WIC and the modern-day version of food stamps so we do not have grocery needs at this time.

During the past several months, Justin has also been dealing with an Ulcerative Colitis flare up that is not responding to medication.

Our financial needs/goals follow, in order of priority:

1) $3,762.38 to get our account back to zero.

2) $1,308.30 to cover bills (includes health ins. and utilities) for March.

3) $1,000.00 Emergency Fund.

4) ~$15,000 to purchase a family vehicle (2 adults + 4 carseats). We are currently borrowing a vehicle.

5) ~$10,000 to cover bills/expenses April through May.

6) Any leftover funds would be applied to debt repayment.

Prayer requests:

1) That our family will find stable income with a living wage.

2) That we will have peace and trust in the Lord during this time.

3) That the person responsible for this scam will turn their life around and use their skills for good.

4) That we will find a medication soon that will calm Justin's Ulcerative Colitis flare up

Even $1 will make a difference for us. Please hold us up in prayer.

God Bless,

Justin & Rachel
