It sounds like you are a in a terribly tight and unfortunate spot right now. I am sorry that you are having to go through all of that. Unfortunately, I am not sure how much financial help you will get by posting your paypal address on various websites and asking strangers to send you money. I think you will get a lot farther by looking for help locally - starting with your home church. Most churches have a Benevolence Ministry that is created to help out people in similar situations to yours. Also, have you requested assistance from your utility providers? I know that my utility companies (electric and gas at least) solicit small regular donations from customers and these donations are redirected to help other customers that are in dire financial need and can not afford their bills. I would suggest you contact your utility providers directly to see if you can get some relief from them. Also, for your younger child's asthma, I think that some pharmaceutical companies offer similar programs and that most doctor's offices are willing to provide free samples of medications if they have them. I think that using various PF blogs to get some information to help you reduce spending and find extra sources of income is a good place to start. For direct financial support, however, my guess is that your efforts will be more fruitful if you start in your local community. @Karen,

I don’t know what to do. Water bill was $55, Gas $70 and now my electricity bill is around $31, (we are billed 6 times a year) bill (water, gas and electricity) averages $156.

Congrats on getting listed on CPF's top 20 list, that is how I found your blog. Actually it was funny because I was searching the Internet <strong>that day</strong> for a list of biblically based personal finance websites, and just so happened to stumble upon CPF's post! I was very happy to find that article because it is leading me to many other great Christian based personal finance sites. I too have recently started a christian PF site of my own called DebtFreeAdventure. Check it out from the link in my name on this comment, and let me know what you think. I started the blog over the holiday season and have already experienced many blessings from the Lord! I also run a personal blog that has been around much longer at eJabs.com. I have subscribed to your blog and will most likely be adding you to my blogroll for Christian Personal Finance once I get around to shoring that up. I look forward to communicating with you. I prayerfully trust the Lord will use our blogs to help each other and to help many others in need.
