Lifesong for Orphans

We have been approved for a matching grant from Lifesong for Orphans (www.lifesongfororphans.org). Lifesong with give us a matching grant, up to $2000, to use towards our adoption. This means that a $2000 donation will result in a $4000 donation. Our church, First Baptist Church of Mansfield, is sponsoring our efforts with Lifesong. Any amount donated above the initial $2000 will go into an account to be used for our adoption. All checks are made to the non-profit organization and, by law, they may distribute the funds in any way they have a need. However, they will do everything to respect your preference and donation request. This means your donations will be used for our adoption.

NOTE: Donations made to Lifesong are tax-deductible.

For more information on how to donate with Lifesong, see the "donate" section on the right side of this blog.

Now the scary part, we are just about finished with the dossier. This means that the government of Ethiopia will begin their process of getting our referral pretty soon. Whew!

That is all, thank you again. Please keep praying for us.
