Hello Family & Friends,
I’m reaching out to ask for your help on behalf of our dear Sister and Friend, Kendra A. Through a whirlwind series of events, Kendra has found herself in need of legal representation to fight a misdemeanor charge filed against her. Yes, as unbelievable as that sounds knowing Kendra, you’ve read that correctly.
After two hearings and minimal conversations with her Public Defender (which resulted in more questions than answers), Kendra has decided it best to engage outside Counsel to either settle out of court or prove her innocence at trial.
Currently, the defense lawyer she has consulted with is landing in the neighborhood of $5000, with $2500 required as an upfront retainer. We do not know anything beyond this in regards to fees should this move to trial, only that Kendra feels led to engage this lawyer, trusting that the Lord will provide the funds soon as her next court hearing is at the end of September.
This is where we turn to His people, asking for your prayers and financial contribution at this time.
Though Kendra had to spend two nights in jail (a place she never imagined she'd find herself), The Lord used her there to encourage and minister to several women. This ordeal has been a shock to Kendra's system, but she hasn't lost faith and consistently reminds others that Jesus is Faithful. She is confident in the Will of God and that Christ has and will continue to be her True Defender through it all and that justice will be served.
Thank you, in advance, for your prayers and generosity. If the circumstances change, this campaign will be updated but, for now, this is Kendra's urgent need:
$2500 goal: September 13th (1st installment -THIS HAS BEEN RAISED, PRAISE GOD!!)
$1250 goal: needed by September 26th (2nd installment)
$1250 goal: needed by October 6th (3rd installment)
$5000 TOTAL GOAL

With gratitude,
Maria
P.S. If you would like further information as to the details of the charges, please feel free to reach out to either Kendra or me.
