Hey there,
Hope you’re enjoying the last FULL WEEK before Christmas. My wife and I would like to ask a HUGE favor from you. As many of you know, I’m excited to be working as the Family Pastor at Blueprint Church and we’re only weeks away from our first service. Unfortunately, extremely urgent needs don’t follow any given calendar.
Albert & Felicia Spaulding moved to Atlanta from Indianapolis back in October, and are a part of our church plant team. The Spauldings are on a journey that my wife and I know well. They, too, are raising a son with Autism.
On Wednesday evening, 11 year old Justice fell from a 15ft porch severely breaking his ankle. After taking him to the hospital and speaking with a specialist, the decision was made to perform surgery. As if the traumatic experience and emotional toll wasn’t enough, the Spauldings (being new to Atlanta and WITHOUT health care insurance) were told they would need over $6,000 for the operation.
Presently, the family is at home contacting family & friends in order to raise money for Justice. It all seems unreal, especially considering the calmness he’s maintained while enduring so much pain. His mom (Felicia) and I were on the phone earlier and she described to me how the medical staff kept complimenting them on how pleasant he’s been throughout the entire episode (a real trooper)!
If you’d like to help the Spaulding family, please log on to our website, www.blueprintchurch.org. If you click on the GIVE tab, it will provide you an E-give option at the bottom of the page. Once you’ve signed in, E-give will ask for an amount and then provide a space for SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS. At that point, note Benevolence.
Please know that we GREATLY appreciate this & I look forward to updating you very soon!!!
Thanks a lot…
Dula
