Dear Friends, Family and Guests,
As you can see through this blog, we've
been going through the process of adopting our beautiful little boy Gabriel from China. We were matched
with him in November, and are hoping to be allowed to travel to pick up our
son at the end of August.
Right now, ‘getting
him’ is the hard part because it’s expensive. However, we have been confident
that God is going to provide a way and a very interesting fundraising idea has
made me believe that all the more.
If you can use a tool,
clean a window, paint a wall, stuff envelopes, make phone calls, arrange food,
or simply pray… then we need you!
With your help, we have a chance, not only to raise the funds necessary to
bring our son home, but to also serve a widow, just like it talks about in
James 1:27. Here’s how it works:
Eric and I find a
widow in need and assemble a team of our friends to complete a Both Hands
Project. Then the team (including us) would send out letters to family
and friends asking people to sponsor us for the day, as we work on this widow’s
house. All the funds raised go toward our adoption. It’s just like
asking someone to sponsor you for a 5K Run for the Cure.
This idea has been done
over 262 times around the country already! Attached is a link to a video that
might help give you a good idea of what the Both Hands Project is all about.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98PD-O97N3I
Would you consider being on our team? You may be jumping up and down like I was
and saying “pick me, pick me” or you might have several questions. Please ask away and SHARE.
Thanks for even
considering it.
Kim, Eric & Anthony (& Gabriel too)
