look into the eyes of a little treasure made in the image of the most-loving God and tell them how thankful you are that He created them?
or
linger, snuggle and pray over a little orphan-treasure as you tuck them in, knowing that perhaps they have not been prayed over in a really long time, or maybe even ever?
or
get out of your comfort zone and see what the real world is like for so many others?
or
work with our Frontlines feeding program feeding street orphans in the slums?
{Knowing that meal might be their only meal for a while?}
or
have a massive slumber party for the once-orphaned street boys now living in a group home?
or
bring fresh water to a bunch of orphans who have been drinking out of a putrid, diseased infested hole of water?
Ever dreamed of going to Africa with a group of orphan-lovin’ folks just like you?

🙂
We are so excited to be GOING again…Praise God!
Such a profound thing that you are GOing again with another GO team…love that!
I would SO love to GO! This is not the season for me, but I'm sure many people will be very blessed.
One day it WILL be your season. Promise.
Oh… have I ever longed to!!!! Can not wait till January! Praying for your family Linny!
You get to! You get to! You get to!! So excited for all of you!
Linny, I've been thinking of the January trips for my daughter and I. Do you have any idea of approx airfare cost? Thanks!
The airfare is running between $1800 and $2000. We have not ever had someone desire to GO care for the orphans that God has not met every single dollar needed. Some write letters to friends and relatives, have bake sales, yard sales, anything to raise the money and not one has had to cancel at the last minute. I hope you can go! You and your daughter will never be the same!
Linny,
I have been thinking of this trip for my daughter and I. Do you have any idea of approx airfare cost?
Thanks!
Wish I could go! But know that when the teams get back I will be creepily stalking everyone on facebook looking at their pictures. 😉
Joanna – you creeper you! Wait! So I let my daughters go meet up with a creeper at the airport as the said creeper was passing through Phoenix? Okay, so that's just plain creepy. haha. xo
I went to Africa this past summer! I loved it there and helping the people in need there was such a blessing. 🙂
