See How God’s Love Pours Out
Patterson Family Vacation
Our hearts are so full after an unforgettable trip to Gatlinburg made possible through the incredible charity: Buna’s Hope Foundation.
We made so many special memories—visiting Dollywood, staying in a beautiful cabin with so many fun things to enjoy, and watching Mary Teresa experience her very first movie. She chose Zootopia 2 and absolutely loved it!
We also got to celebrate a huge milestone: our oldest daughter’s 18th birthday on Thanksgiving Day. The nights were wrapped up around the fire place just soaking in the quiet time together.
This trip was filled with joy, gratitude, and memories we will cherish forever. Thank you, Buna’s Hope, for blessing our family in such a meaningful way. ❤️
The Sigler Family Pilgrimage
This was the trip of a lifetime. A pilgrimage we will never forget. No value can be placed on adoration, prayer time, and confession with your whole family in some of the holiest places in the world. Gifts from God Almighty!
Our family was blessed to travel together to Lourdes, Paris, and the south of France. Our main focus was to go to Lourdes to beg Our Lady for a cure for our Michael. We also hoped to spend time together as a family and make lots of memories! Miracles come in many forms. Not always physically, as we desire. Oh, but they do come!! Spiritually, we are not the same people. Praise be to God! In faith, we believe that Our Lady is at work and continues to heal us in the areas where we need it most!
With the help of Buna’s Hope Foundation, we were able to make this trip become a reality! Our Lady, as the good Mama that she is, let us know she wanted us there and carefully orchestrated the details of our trip and pilgrimage. The generosity and kindness of so many people truly touched our hearts!

A perfect room for a super heroic little fighter!

Snapp Family Vacation
The Snapp family took a much needed vacation getaway to relax and unwind at the beach.
After trudging through many doctors appointments and tests over the last year, Samantha was diagnosed with papilledema of both eyes due to Ideopathic intracranial hypertension. Doctors continue to try to solve the puzzle, but with no definitive answers to date, they graciously excepted the gift to take a break from the rigors of life and spend good quality family time soaking up the sun.
“It was awesome! We feel refreshed and like a team heading home. Thank you Buna’s Hope for orchestrating such a wonderful trip!”

Aucoin Family Vacation
What a blessing and gift from God!
Thank you Buna’s Hope for a beautiful family vacation to Rosemary Beach Florida. Fighting stage 4 breast cancer took a lot out of us and it’s easy to get stuck in sedentary routine. It was incredible to have a weekend away to relax and escape the anxiety that comes with a terminal illness. We will always be grateful for the special trip.
