So it's about time to make the first blog post for Project 541. We are in the process of becoming incorporated, the first step in the very long process of becoming a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. There was an AWESOME response from Grace United Methodist Church a few weeks ago that left us feeling encouraged and energized. As you probably know, starting a business, even if it is not for profit, is a complicated and expensive process. Our most immediate needs include funding for the legal fees necessary to achieve our tax exempt status, prayers for Esteven in his therapy, and prayers for the future recipients of Project 541 services. I know that there are girls right this moment that are suffering, and that in the future will come to live with us. As most of you know, I am eager to make the move and start serving these girls, however I still lack 1 year of school before I can graduate. In short, I need patience! I am itching to start the next step of this journey. We appreciate your support of Project 541 and will continue to keep you updated on the progress!
