Bless her
Orphanage
The
suitcases are slowly filling. Visas are ready. Paperwork is organized and
filed. Hearts are eager! We are meeting our sweet Bree soon- and bringing her
HOME.
As we pack
and prepare for this exciting trip, we would love to enlist some help from YOU.
One thing we will do when we pick up Bree is bless her orphanage with gifts. I
can’t even imagine the emotions we will feel as we take Bree out of the
orphanage forever.
Joy. Yes!
She will leave an orphanage and be welcomed into a home.
Sadness.
For sure. The sweet brown eyes of all the other children- waiting- wondering. When will my family come for me?
So, let’s
bless them. We need to bring an “empty” suitcase for shopping in India, but we
really don’t want to take an empty suitcase. We want it full of gifts for the
children to leave at Bree’s orphanage. And we would love for you to take part
in this blessing. We will be collecting items through the end of this month. If you need our address, message us! Possible
donation items include:
· Fun band-aids
· Clothing: NEW (not used) for all
ages and sizes. Summer clearance items would be perfect for that year-round
India heat!
· Toys/games/activities: crayons,
coloring books, puzzles, sturdy toys that can be used by large numbers of
children
· Treats: suckers, hard candy
Thank you
in advance!!
Finally,
thank you for praying fervently for our family through this adoption journey.
May I leave you with one specific request?
PRAY that her passport will be received by the end of this month-
September- so we can finalize travel preparations and travel early October.
So
grateful,
Melissa
Hurray! I'll get in touch with you once we are back in Colorado.
