As some of you know I went on a mission trip to Haiti this past winter. My wife and I were so impressed with Healing Haiti and their operation at Grace Village that we decided to sponsor a child until they reached the age of 18.
In my original blog post I stated that we were sponsoring the girl until God could move someone to adopt her permanently. And He is moving a family to do just that right now.
Consequently we made the decision a few weeks back to sponsor not just one child, but two children in Haiti. And that happened as of about ten minutes ago. We are truly blessed to be able to take care of these beautiful children and their financial needs.
But that leaves a whole bunch of really neat children at Grace Village who all need a sponsor. Because for every child that is sponsored another child can be cared for in Haiti. I trust the people at Healing Haiti with my donation. Completely.
Which means that I’m launching Sponsorship Sunday effective May 5th, 2013. Each Sunday I will provide a profile, a picture, and a link to the sponsorship page of one of these amazing children. I am not a representative of Healing Haiti nor am I connected in any official way with them. But I know that their hearts are good and they work on behalf of those kids. I am delighted to be able to use this platform to bring these children to potential sponsors.
I ask that you take some time in prayer to consider sponsoring a child at Grace Village. I won’t bend your ears or twist your arm about doing a sponsorship. I will mention that you can sponsor a child and meet all of their basic, medical, and educational needs for less than what you pay for a fru-fru coffee at a major chain that rhymes with “car clucks.” I’m using my ill-gotten loot from a couple of really great voice over gigs to cover the sponsorship. If you look at it another way, it’s a little less per day than a #1 Value Meal at McDonalds. You can totally change a life for the price of a burger and fries.
Please stop back Sunday to do a bit of The Lord’s work here on Earth.
