Sacrifice

Sarah wanted to share something on her heart. She wrote this several days ago. 

Here is what my sweet Sarah wrote about her own experience.

Have I missed out by our family adopting??

Yes. I have missed out. Instead of family vacations we were fundraising. Have I ever been to Disney world? No. But you know what? I don’t care. What I have gained is so much more then what I have lost. I have gained a heart after the Father’s. My desire is to serve the orphans and the widows. Instead of saving up for a new bike I was saving up for a plane ticket. It was worth it. Instead of crying over ruining a manicure I was sobbing on the plane at the thought of leaving so many children behind. It is worth it. Spending time with my family is just as important as spending it with friends. Every hug is a battle won. Every minute of spending time together meant that love was building. Adoption has broken me and Christ has made me more like him through it all. Has it been hard? Yes. But oh so worth it!

 I wanted to post this as I continue to see the Lord working in my Children's hearts. They are looking for ways to help the Reed family who we dearly love. The Reeds are trying desperately to get their 2 girls home from China but keep hitting walls. They are only 1 week away from leaving and needed $4,000 yet to be fully funded and then went to purchase tickets and found they are $3,000 higher. They now need $7,000 ASAP.  What did my kids do. They found everything they could to sell to help raise money for our friends.  I love how God is teaching them to sacrifice for others. You can  Donate to help the Reeds Click here.   THANK YOU!!

One Year Ago

A year ago this February we were excited to help our friends, the Reeds, prepare to bring home their son Joel, and their daughter Sophia.

Sophia

 We had been desperately trying to raise the last support they needed to travel. We were amazed at God’s miracle when he provided the exact amount on February 7^th. We were rejoicing!!  Then rejoicing turned to sorrow the very next day when we learned sweet Sophia went home to be with Jesus. It has been a long hard but amazing journey to watch God, “give unto them beauty from ashes”. God has been working in the Reeds lives and now has blessed them with two beautiful girls waiting in China. You can read their amazing story on their blog Here .

Caitlyn

Talia

In China they are preparing for Chinese New Year and the Reeds are celebrating with a special Red Envelope Fundraiser. This is a great way to celebrate new life and to support this family. They could really use your help!!  You can chose a red envelope and donate the coordinating amount. Details can be found HERE

What a great gift for Valentine's Day to honor someone you love with a donation.

 We hope you will come join us in helping the Reed Family bring their girls home!!!

PS Keep an eye out we will be having a Coffee fundraiser very soon!!
