See Wes Run

On September 24, Wes is running in a mini-marathon with a group from our church for Team World Vision.  The purpose of Team World Vision is to raise awareness of children living in extreme poverty and to find people willing to sponsor them.  

That's where you come in.  

Maybe you would be willing to sponsor one child out of millions that are living in extreme poverty.  

$35 each month.  

Maybe you've considered sponsoring a child before but have never taken the next step.  

Maybe you have never heard of organizations like World Vision or Compassion, so something like this has never crossed your mind. 

I want you to think about it.  Seriously.   

Every person that chooses to sponsor a child will receive a necklace, bracelet or earrings from The Sparrow Fund... my treat.  {I'm trusting God with this one...}

What I love about this etsy shop:

Each jewelry purchase will support adoptive families -- adoptive families in Kenya and adoptive families in the  U.S. through The Sparrow Fund.  It's a full circle approach in adoption support and orphan care--we desire to give our friend Mary {biological mother of 9 and adoptive mother of 7} who strings these pieces an income so she can care for her family and the women she works with who make the beads while also raising money for the  The Sparrow Fund, a nonprofit giving grants to adoptive families here in the U.S.

These are some of my favorites...


  


What do you think?  Are you in?  If you are, shoot me an e-mail and I would love to help you get matched with a child.  Addition: Click here to find out how to do everything on-line.  

If you absolutely don't feel led to sponsor a child, please consider doing one or all of the following:

Pray.
