A friend from college asked me to post this. It is about a young lady who grew up in her son's orphanage. I had heard about this young lady from some other China Adoption groups.
Mia is a mid 20's young woman who grew up in Luo Yang orphanage. As if it's not hard enough growing up in an orphanage she has congenital scoliosis and nearly died. She has succeeded despite all this. She came to the US for college about 3 years ago. This spring in the midst of her winter quarter at Seattle University her sponsor told her she wasn't supporting her any more. She really needs to finish because unfortunately her options for higher education in China are limited because of her physical disablitity. Now she's probably transferring to a community college, but she still need about $18,000 to finish her degree (social work). She's a Christian woman no less and wants to return to work with the remaining orphans.

Can you send $5? That is the cost of a Starbucks coffee. Can you send $10? That is the cost of a lunch? Can you send $50? That is the cost of a dinner out with your spouse? Whatever you can do will help.
The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it. Matthew 13:44-46
