NathanielWe can show only a picture of Nathaniel’s eyes for privacy reasons.

Beth always thought she would adopt or be a foster mom. She has worked full time as a special education teacher for 26 years. After participating in a Buddy Walk with Cate’s Crusaders, Beth visited the Reece’s Rainbow table and grabbed a brochure. After the first visit to the site, Beth knew what she was supposed to do. After researching the requirements for different countries and pouring over so many pictures, the time came to discuss the possibility with her then 15 year old daughter Taylor. Taylor was onboard immediately. A picture of a little boy with a progressive neuromuscular disease drew Beth in. He was the one. He was her son. You see Beth has been a volunteer camp counselor since 1980 for one week each summer for kids with Muscular…

For those of you who have been following along, our goal is to raise $400 for each child.  We have only met that goal for six children so far!  I know it’s an ambitious one, but these children are so worth it – and God is so able to move His Church to action.  So we are being bold to ask Him to move the hearts of those who visit our site today.

We have $4,200 left to meet our fundraising goal for the fundraiser so far.  It sounds big, but again God is bigger, and when we think about it; it’s not much at all!  I know how many readers we have every day, and if each of you gave just $15.00 we would easily breeze by this goal.  Easily!  So this is my challenge for us today – do just that!  If you are already committed…

Our Goal is to raise $500 for Kurt and Lina… $349 to go!

Kurt

Kurt is a handsome young man with brown hair and giant brown eyes.   He is able to walk on his own and is a delightful boy.  More medical info should be available soon.  Older parents and large families welcome, travel required.  Married couples only.

His advocate, Teresa, writes… “I came across the Reece’s Rainbow website by accident trying to find something else. The children kept coming back to me even after I had closed the window, so I signed up to be a prayer warrior and was assigned to Kurt.  Kurt is five years old and has very mild cerebral palsy. He can run by himself. Because his special need is mild, the biggest challenges his adoptive family will face are probably going to be orphanage-related. It’s important that he be adopted as soon as possible…
