Hello, we are Andrew and Chantelle Garrigan.

In November 2024, we learned that our then-unborn son, Benji, has a life-threatening heart defect, requiring at least three major heart surgeries and a heart transplant.

Benji was born in February 2025 and, ten days later, underwent a successful first heart surgery. He was discharged from the PCICU at the end of March and will recover at home until his next surgery, scheduled for Fall 2025.

We are grateful that the Lord has provided us with financial relief through our insurance, which has covered over $500,000 in expenses so far. But we are still facing uncovered medical costs, and our everyday expenses are increasing as a growing but single-income family whose earner now works fewer hours to help care for Benji. 

Our missionary organization, MGF, has granted us Family Medical Leave and will support us as we care for Benji. Donations for our project will now help us cover these expenses so we can focus solely on Benjamin until we can revisit our church planting and counseling goals. 

Our immediate goal is to raise $30,000.

All contributions remain tax-deductible.

Thank you for helping us as we care for our son.
