Shine Like Stars

Shine like stars in the universe as we hold out the Word of life (Phil. 2:15)
We're not trying to be rock stars but just shed some light on a sad and lonely world. Stay tuned for how God works through weak and tired, sometimes really cranky vessels.

Help for Haiti



Crystal from Money Saving Mom had an incredible idea about raising money for Haiti and I'm joining her! I'm not a famous blogger like her but I'm heartbroken over the devastation in Haiti and feel the need to 'do' something.

So here's the deal...

If you are reading this and you have a blog....please take action and donate to an organization helping in Haiti. Then come back to my blog and leave your link on Mr. Linky.

For each link I get Michael and I will donate $2.00 to World Wide Village.

For those of you who don't have a blog...you can still be a part. You can donate to the Red Cross by texting the word "haiti" to 90999.
Leave a comment and let us know you did this and we will donate $1.00 to the Red Cross for each comment that comes in.

Let's help!!!

We need to pray, pray, pray for the people of Haiti and give, give, give!

Michael and I have been amazed over the past year at how the Lord has provided financially for our adoption. He's faithful to take care of us when we give to others. I've experienced it firsthand. He's an awesome God!

  13. God Bless you for this effort!!! It doesn't matter which of us the money comes from or what organization provides the help as long as it comes!!! Our adoption advocacy ministry has brought in approximately $350 so far. There are links from my blog and our site www.jointheirsadoptionministry.org for other bloggers that are missionaries in Haiti that we are friends with and work with on missions there. So, not only are we bystanders praying for Haiti we have a vested personal interest with the family friends and loved ones there, American and Haitian. Thank you for doing your part!!!
