{Day 166}

Today is Orphan Sunday.  Please take the 10.for.10 challenge.  See these young ones in this picture?  They are excited about their new toothbrushes.  They have so little but they are more grateful and happy than we can imagine.  Let’s impact their lives.  Will you give even just $10 dollars today? You can’t get much for that here but if you give that amount for these orphans it will feed two of them for a month.  I only ask that you would do for these orphans as you would want others to do for you if you were in their situation. xxx

UPDATE! $37,151 😀 😀 😀  You all are amazing! We finally tipped it over the $37K mark.  O.K. how fast can we race to the 200 mark?

    Hey Elaini!
    I’m back sorry I haven’t been commenting our computers been fussy.
    I just want to say once more I’m very happy that your doing this 🙂 .
    Now that Orphan Sunday has come I think each of us should do a little something
    for the vulnerable so I’ve been preparing to give to some charities that support the poor and the orphan so I’ve saved up a good amount of money to give to a few of my favorite charities like samaritans purse we get the catalog every year around this time and I was able to buy a goat and chicks for a family who needs them and now that christmas is nearing it’s good to think about Operation Christmas Child this week I’m going shopping for a little girl orphan from 8 to 10 years of age. Lets all do something for the poor and vulnerable this year! 😀

    A toothbrush? That makes me want to cry. It also makes me want to jump up and down. Isn’t it amazing that at least SOME kids are extrememly happy with the small things they are given? Instead of complaining about the COLOR of their toothbrush? How amazing. This touched me so much. Thank-you God, and Thank-you Elaini, you are an incredible inspiration!!
