Ended – Mother’s Precious Pearl Giveaway…

Our Mother’s Precious Pearls Giveaway has ended!

We have had only 7 people, whom we know of, who shared and/or gave towards JASPER‘s and JASON‘s adoption grants. Out of those 7, only 3 have commented to take part in the giveaway. We raised a total of US$24.30 for both boys.

Even though that number seems small, i’m still happy we ran the giveaway. i’m aware that there is very likely lots of other shares which we were not able to see – i’m not sure why – maybe just the way Facebook is set up. And i know people who shared but did not want a thank you gift.

However, the other numbers are encouraging; over the last 2 weeks, a total of 1593 persons saw our Facebook posts about JASPER and JASON. Plus, there was also a handful views on our blog.

So there were many who did see our boys’ stories and we will just keep on praying that somehow (with God’s leading) their forever families will see them and step forward for them.

Now onto who gets which gift.

Marine Rose receives the Brown Pearl Necklace.

Deanna Galgano receives the White Pearl Bracelet.

Angelia Nachtwey Squires receives the Dark Grey Pearl Earrings.

Thank you all once again for all your love and efforts for JASPER and JASON.

Recipients will be contacted for their mailing address via email or FB message.

Even though this giveaway has ended, please do continue to share their stories and pray for JASPER and JASON.

Thank you all for loving our precious boys!

Mother’s Precious Pearls Giveaway…

Do you know what are a mother’s pearls? Sure, some mums do own strings of lovely pearls. But what are a mother’s true and most precious pearls?

They are her children! Born of her, loved by her, nourished by her and who will always take that important place in her heart of hearts.

JASPER and JASON – whom we pray for daily and we advocate for – they were their mother’s precious pearls, once. But due to circumstances, and for reasons we will never know, they were given up.

Now we are advocating for them, praying and hoping for a new mother to claim them as her precious pearls. Will you help us? Will you join us in SHARING their stories with as many as we can?

Because of their special needs (click on their names to read more), and the unlikelihood of being fully accepted into the society they have been born into, their hope for a forever family lies outside their home country. This means an expensive international adoption. Will you help GROW their adoption grants so their forever families will have less of a burden in reaching them?

This Mother’s Pearls Giveaway is one of the ways we would hope would help these boys find their family. And as a thank you for all your efforts to help these precious boys, we have some gifts for you – 15 in total, and you get to choose which one you would like to have.

Here are our thank you gifts:
