New Information

Hey guys!

I have some wonderful news!!!! Reece's Rainbow has now made it possible for the children who are 6 years old and above to have there own grants. Before, all money raised for an older child would go to a collective grant for "older children". But as of now, the "older children" can each have a grant specifically for them. This means that Little Miss Nastya can have her very own grant. And in my opinion this means that we have taken one step closer to finding her, as well as all of the other children on Reece's Rainbow, their forever families!!!!! If that doesn't get you excited I'm really not sure at this point what will!!

So in saying that I want to make everyone out there aware that fundraising for Little Miss Nastya will go into full swing. We have to find these children families!!! I have read too many stories, seen too many pictures, and had my heart broken way too many times to let this opportunity pass me by. Even if it means these children find families just one at a time, that is progress!!! And we just don't have any time left to waste! There are children crying, starving, dying even just because they have no parents.

We have to do something! I have to do something!!! I have seen pictures of an 11 year old little girl who weighs 10 pounds, and children who should be in elementary school the size of babies still in cribs !!! These children have stopped growing!  Some have just shut down! No child should have a life like the ones I have read about!

But now is the time! For such a time is this!! Like Esther, who was put in a royal position to save her people, I believe if we allow God to do it He will bring us all into a position to help save our people, our children. Join with me and be a voice for the children!! Thank you in advance for your support, your prayers, and everything that will be done on behalf of these children. You may never know where a single act of obedience may lead you. Be open. Be willing. Be obedient.

Something to think about...

I've been reading several blogs lately. Some of them have made me voice aloud my thanks to God! These blogs were about children who will soon be orphans no more. There have been families that have heard of the children across the ocean, or maybe the ones right in there home town, that have needed parents. These blogs tell of how people like you and me have opened their hearts, their homes, and yes there wallets to bring a child out of the life of an orphan and into the life of a family.

Like this one. http://findingourlittleone.blogspot.com/search?updated-min=2011-01-01T00%3A00%3A00-08%3A00&updated-max=2012-01-01T00%3A00%3A00-08%3A00&max-results=13



Meet Dawson and Issac. Here are two little boys that will soon be meeting there Mommy and Daddy! I have personally followed this blog on a daily basis!! And let me tell you, I have joyously watched and prayed as the "ticker" moves further and further along showing the financial goal being met.

Praise God!!

It makes me want to shead tears of joy, every, single, time.

But then there are blogs like this one. http://www.nogreaterjoymom.com/2011/08/because-it-is-our-problem.html?spref=fb

Meet Liliana. She is 11.


Yes, 11 years old. And she weighs 10 pounds. My son who is 13 months old weighs double that!!!! This is the kind of blog I read that makes me want to vomit and weep all at the same time! The blog link above explains how it IS OUR problem that little Lilana is so small.

A quote that I keep running across lately by Edmund Burke has proven itself very true. "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." Obviously I do not need to explain how very necessary it is for "good men (and women, and children)" to stand up. To be a voice. These children need a voice. I want to ask everyone out there who will read this blog to join with me and be that voice. If we all stand up we surely will be noticed. And it all can happen one person at a time.

The links above will lead you to a place where you can read more on all of the children I have mentioned. These children still need lotts of funding to make their homecomings possible. You are more that welcome, encouraged even to follow these blogs to stay posted on Dawson, Issac, and Lilana. And as always don't forget about Nastya. She is still among those looking to find her forever family. Join with me.
