140 and more

For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name.

He has blessed us with loved ones.

I pray that out of HIS glorious riches HE may strengthen you with power through HIS Spirit in your inner being

so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through FAITH.
He has blessed us beyond measure.

And I pray that you, being rooted and established in LOVE, 

We have been given more than we could ever possibly give back.

may have power, together with all the Lord's holy people, to grasp how wide

and long 

and high

and deep

is the LOVE of Christ, 

Being overwhelmed with love, by those that we call the village.

and to know that

THIS LOVE

that surpasses knowledge--

Family, friends, strangers. So many stepping forward to say, "I care."

that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Sometimes I am overwhelmed by feeling so small; what can I do to repay the LOVE that we have been shown?


This is my answer. 

They need to know love, too.

Now to HIM who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine,

according to HIS power that is at work within us,

and they've never felt love, either.

to HIM be the glory

 in the church 

and in Christ Jesus 

throughout all generations

forever

and ever.

Neither have they. 

Amen!
Ephesians 3:14-21

None of these children have families right now.

None of them get to feel love, or hope; 

Today I found out how many people have contributed just to our FSP:

140  

141

(it changed as I'm writing.)

One hundred forty one different voices

coming together as one village

to bring one little girl home

no matter what the cost.

Thank you.

As if I haven't already asked enough of the village, 

I'm now asking for more:

The little ones in the photos above

have never known love.

Reece's Rainbow hosts its biggest fundraising event

at this time every year. 

I'm asking Elisha's Villagers

to each choose a child. 

Look at the faces above, then

visit the Reece's Rainbow website,

and choose just ONE child

as the child you will be a warrior for.

By raising money and awareness for that child, 

he or she gains a better chance at finding a

forever family. 

They all deserve it.

They all need it.

Elisha's being rescued because of you;

WHO ELSE CAN YOU SAVE?
