It could be a nation-wide ministry with you guys running it.<BR/>I would certainly be on board with something like that!Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07196817003367588042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17456552.post-73615007529414745502008-07-21T14:02:00.000-07:002008-07-21T14:02:00.000-07:00I am so glad that our group is taking this directi...I am so glad that our group is taking this direction - great idea Tesi!

This is...Tesi!<BR/>I admire you and Jody for doing this! This is a goal of mine and my husband's - to begin an "Orphan ministry". It may be a "personal ministry of ours, or Lord willing, our church will "jump on board" and support us in this. Either way, it's something that the Lord has placed on our hearts as well. I think it's wonderful that you guys are doing this! I will pray for God's blessing upon your ministry.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07196817003367588042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17456552.post-37555843890321803392008-07-20T20:27:00.000-07:002008-07-20T20:27:00.000-07:00That sounds so exciting.

I know that for myself, as I find out more about what is happening here and in other countries, I have a hard time balancing my passion for orphans and children in need and being a mom to the ones I have because this passion just starts to be all-consuming once your eyes are opened. One of the statistics that I read (don't know about the accuracy) is that if one out of every 7 Christian families adopted one child each, there would be no more orphans in the entire world. How incredibly sad that we are so far from that goal. Anyway, sorry to rattle on but I think it's great that you are organizing something.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
