Day 37: Colton for the McIntee Family… Forty to Forever…

Today at Forty to Forever, we are shouting out for a dear family, the McIntees, who has been actively advocating for orphans well before they started their own adoption journey. They had a major roadblock with their first adoption, but they are committed to wait out that roadblock. In the meantime, God has moved them to bring Colton home. Please help them.
Today’s Lent Devotion speaks about making fasting a weekly routine… so that we are constantly reminded of Our Lord and His Work on the Cross… have a read, consider it and make it so… syc

Our Goal is to raise $400 for Colton… $257 to go! 

10811130632-Colton-feb2012-1-300x236Colton is a sweet, two year old boy who has Down syndrome.  Isn’t he precious?  Please help us get this sweet boy home!  This is his family’s story…

Kyle and Kara met in 2004 and quickly fell in love. They were soon blessed with four beautiful daughters after that and live a blissfully busy life.  When Kara discovered Reece’s Rainbow, it was like a dream come true. She has always been called to orphans and especially the work of Mother Teresa, but didn’t know how to help. So, having a tangible way to advocate for these children was amazing. Kara spent months advocating for a sweet little redhead, Nico.  When she saw Nico’s face, and after a series of signs from The Lord,  ”someday” became “now.” Kyle wasn’t so sure, but after a while, and some more signs, he was on board too…

It Is the Mulligan Stew 2013…

What is that? Well, Wiki defines it as an improvised dish said to have been prepared by American hobos in camps in the early 1900s. It is a sort of stew which is made of ingredients which are begged, scavenged, found or stolen.

But the Mulligan Stew i am referring to is made up of very different ingredients; it is made with love first of all, and with tears, and with big hearts. i am talking about the Mulligan Stew which is being brewed over at Micah Six Eight – Covenant Builders, which will benefit 7 families and 12 waiting orphans.

mulliganstew2013Hear the heart of the stew makers:

Our Mulligan Stew is a tasty community stew that will feed a whole host of orphans, because a whole host of Godly people from the adoption community threw a whole host of great ingredients into our stew pot.

There are more than 100 items simmering away in our stew pot. The total value of all of these items is well over $5,000.00. Every single one of these donated items has been accompanied by whispered prayers that God will multiply the gift.

Our stew’s been simmering for several weeks now. We’ve been praying for the Lord’s blessing on this meal.

Now we just need YOU to help us care for the orphan.

It is so very easy to help and every little bit helps make the stew even more yummy!

Simply head over to Micah Six Eight, donate to an adopting family and a waiting child, comment at that blog with your full name and you have a chance at one of those 100 over items in the stew!

Thank you very much.

Day 36: Gage for the Earleywine Family… Forty to Forever…

Today at Forty to Forever, we are trying to help the Earleywine Family meet an important target – they need a few thousand dollars by month’s end so that they can continue with their adoption or they will lose their referral. Little Gage needs to come home, the place where he is at is not known for good care at all. Please help where you can.
Today’s Lent devotion is about something we all love – feasting… and shouting out. But not just any old type of shouting out – shouting out for and about our Saviour, Lord Jesus Christ… have a read, think about how you will shout out during the Easter season… syc

Our Goal is to raise $400 for Gage… $305 to go! 

GageToday we are raising money for the Earleywine family who is in a very difficult position.  They need a few thousand dollars by the end of the month to continue with their adoption, or they will lose their referral.  Their son is in a notoriously bad orphanage and needs out!  Here is their story:

“We are a Christian, home-schooling family. We have been married for almost 15 years, and we have been blessed with 6 children ages 12 to4. We love children, and are excited to open our home and family to more children that need a loving family and the care that we can provide to them. I have several siblings who were adopted, and I can remember the joy it brought to my heart to add them to our family when I was growing up. My Husband, Jayson was himself adopted…
