124 Fatherless Babes


THERE ARE 124 ORPHANS ON THE LIST BELOW.
124 children without families.  124 children who are languishing in institutes across Eastern Europe and Asia.

124 who have less than 100 in their grant account. The vast majority have less than 50 in their account.  Some of them have less than 10.

How sad is that thought?

My boys have more in their savings accounts than these kids have in their grant accounts.

Sorrow upon sorrow for these kids who live in a world where even their underwear is not their own.

But even more than no money - most of these children have few who are advocating for them. Even less who are praying for them.  They are just kids on a numbered list.  

HOW DEVASTATING IS THAT?

On this Friday - before you go out to Walmart or Target or the nearest grocery store to buy bags and bags of Halloween candy and Halloween decorations and Halloween costumes... before you go out will you take a moment today and pick a few of these kids on this list.  

Click their link and LOOK at them.  Pray for them.  Consider their circumstances.  Shed a few tears.  Cry out to the Lord on their behalf.  Donate to their grant account.   

 AND THEN WILL YOU LET ME KNOW?? 

 Tell me WHO you considered.  Leave me a comment and let me know which child you prayed over today.  Tell me which child brought tears to your eyes.  Which child you donated to.  

Please? 

 There are 124 kids on this list.   

 Can we possibly bless every child today on this list? I'm going to update throughout the day.  Mark in read that someone cared about them today.  I don't expect everyone to be able to donate but I am asking everyone to take a few minutes and care. 

 Please!   

If we don't care... who will?

 --------------------------------------- 

 AND WHILE YOU ARE ABOUT CARING... PLEASE KEEP VOTING FOR REECE'S RAINBOW... WE WERE 164 VOTES BEHIND 1ST PLACE THIS MORNING....

    I am praying for Kaleb. I was drawn to his name because we have a Caleb whom we dearly love. When I clicked on his profile I see he has symptoms of celiac disease. We have a lovely friend in our church with this issue and she LOVES to help people make the necessary dietary adjustments, if that would help anyone here.

    I have donated to Alexei and Dylan (though not today). I adore Alexei! On the other hand, I wish someone would go and adopt more of the kids with larger grants before they get older and harder to adopt! So much advocacy for the tough cases, and the kids that already have the large grants sit and wait.... For example, http://matir-asurim.blogspot.com/2012/10/31-for-21-alexander-elden-and-megan.html

They are 2 & 3 years old they get and it made this mommy sob tears of joy and sorrow for her. We prayed for her last night at bedtime and will continue to pray for her.

    I love Avery. I donated to him just a few days ago when Jenny pointed out that his grant hadn't moved in months. And sweet Kinley with her grimace/smile that reminds me of the way my oldest tries to smile for a camera. And little Hayden with autism, also so similar to my oldest. I said a special prayer for all three of them today. Thanks for this post, Julia!
