Both Hands

Next weekend, we have the privilege of helping a friend with fundraising for their adoption.  They have been chose by the Both Hands foundation to participate in a Both Hands project.  What this means is that our friends have identified a widow who needs help around her home.  They then recruit friends to help fix up the widow's house while others sponsor them for their work.

The widow we are helping is an adoptive mom herself.  She lost her husband last year to lung cancer - he was only in his 40's and didn't smoke.  You can watch his story here. They have one biological son and they adopted a boy from foster care who has severe Cerebral Palsy.

Our friends, Jerry and Laura, have two sons whom they adopted via domestic adoption.  This is the path that God has placed them on this time for expanding their family.

Would you consider sponsoring us as we help out two adoptive families?  If so, you can make a tax-deductible donation toward's Jerry and Laura's adoption here.  If you prefer to write a check, you can make it payable to Lifesong for Orphans and send it to P.O. Box 40 Gridley, IL  61744.  Please make sure you put Stockman #2420 in the memo line.
