30 hour famine

Tonight at 5pm Brian and I are not consuming food in order to raise awareness and money for WORLD HUNGER.
Did you know that there are 2.2 Billion children on our planet Earth and 1 Billion of them live in poverty.
Every day 22,000 children die from poverty, famine and water borne diseases.

My plan to take action is this: I will calculate the cost of each meal that I will miss over the next 30 hours an donate that specific amount to WORLD VISION.

Tonight, I donated 25 dollars because I calculated that it cost my family 24.81 dollars to eat a spaghetti dinner including bread, salad, drinks, and a fruit salad.

On the gift catalog I was able to purchase a Garden Kit for orphans including seeds, tools, and training for them to utilize.

We are in the process of packing up our house and moving to Tucson Arizona. Brian and I are going to complete the remainder of the quest once we have established our new residence and job there.

Prayers:
Pray for Sunny Glen Children's home- as they are in turbulent state- protect the children. purify this place. bring the specific people into this ministry that you know will be able to honor you and bring you glory through the work ther do.

Pray for a safe move to Tucson

Pray for a new home...that we will quickly find housing.
Pray for Christopher- that we will find him a great school to attend in Tucson. Protect his beautiful heart.

Praise:
Thank you for wonderful friends that we have found in Brian and Iesha Latham. We are so excited to be joining such a great ministry with them. As we live and serve alongside one another, may we continue to grow in our faith.
Use us to minister to others and encourage one another. Protect Micah and their unborn child. Bless them mightily and thank you for their faith and friendship..such a blessing!
