Donate to Julianna's Homecoming Campaign Today!

The Vogts will be leaving for China to bring Julianna home on July 21st. Excitement is growing as the entire campaign staff (see photo in right column) prepares for the 16-day trip.

The total cost of the adoption is about $25,000. As of today, the Vogts have $16,000. Just 1 week and $9,000 to go!

There are two ways to make a tax-deductible donation:

1) By CREDIT/DEBIT CARD. Enter amount and click "Donate" button in right column.
2) By CHECK. Please make checks payable to "Vineyard Church of Wellsboro" with "Vogt for Julianna" in the memo line and mail to:

Vineyard Church of Wellsboro
605 Dean Hill Road
Wellsboro, PA 16901

If you're giving by check, please send an email to ericka@wellsborovineyard.org with the amount of your gift and when you put the check in the mail. This will give us a way to track how much is still needed.

Thank you!

Any funds collected over the amount needed for the Vogt family adoption will be donated to Show Hope, a ministry set up by Steven Curtis Chapman and his wife Mary Beth to help families with the tremendous cost of adopting, or will be used by the Vineyard Church of Wellsboro to promote, encourage, and facilitate adoption by Christian families.
