Stuck on the Roof No Mo

This past weekend Barnabas X had our big “Stuck on the Roof” fundraiser and we were overwhelmed at the response and love that was poured out to us. Our original goal on Friday was $1500 and we planned on staying on the roof of my dads store until we raised it. After two hours, we had already surpassed $1500 so we got brave and decided to raise our goal to $4000. Go big or go home, right?

Last minute prep work Thursday night.

I had to work Friday morning so I stole these pictures from Facebook. I can’t say how much we appreciate everyone helping us set up. It was hot, y’all. Blazing hot.

This would be our pastor on the far right and his wife on the far left and this was all over Facebook. I can’t help myself but bahahahaha!

Cory claims to be scared of heights but was all over that roof and basically hanging off the edge yelling “help” {in the most God awful voice possible} at people.

This was as close to the edge as I got and I had zoomed in for this photo.

Contrary to popular belief, I had not peed my pants. It was that hot.

When Sandra text to ask if we were still having fun, this was the response she got.

As we were preparing to move to the back of the store to get set up to stay the night, a donor “rescued” us and met our goal! We raised $4000 in less than nine hours!

After all donations were counted, we ended the weekend with right over $4300. God is so good!
