a Sunday and an auction

It is here!  We have spent a lot of time working towards today.  Ben and I have had an online auction fundraiser rolling around in our brains for almost a year and it is pretty exciting to see the idea becoming reality.  When planning the auction, we decided on November because it seemed like a great time for people to do early Christmas shopping.  But we also decided on November because it is National Adoption Month.  More specifically, we chose to start it today because it is Orphan Sunday. 

We do not loose sight of the fact that while Aida is now promised a home and a family there are still millions of orphans all across the world without that hope.  Please join us in continuing to pray for Aida but also praying for the orphans of the world.

This week we invite you to continue walking this journey of love with us. Our auction began just a few hours ago and will continue until Saturday. Please consider sharing our story and telling others about our auction.  Shop with a purpose and help bring one of the millions of orphans into a forever family. 

We hear all the time that it takes a village to raise a child.  I am so excited to one day tell Aida that the village started working for her and loving her long before she ever arrived home. 

With tears in my eyes and great hope in my heart, I extend our overwhelming gratitude to you for the outpouring of generosity and love that has been shown to us through this auction!

Happy bidding!
