Mission Trip to Uganda - March 2009Rachel's parents, Chuck and Eileen Rife, will be traveling to Uganda this March to conduct a week-long marriage seminar for a group of missionaries there. Marriage counseling is hard to come by when you are outside of the United States, but even missionaries need it at times! Rachel's parents are going Uganda to fill this need, and are currently raising support to go. As most of you know Chuck and Eileen Rife have published several books. Proceeds from the sale of these books will go towards their trip to Uganda. Please click here to visit their ONLINE STORE and find out more. March is only two months away!

Adoption from Ethiopia!

Nathan's sister, Jeannette, and her husband Joel are in the process of applying to adopt a child from Ethiopia. They feel the Lord leading them in this direction; however even adopting a child does not come without a price. It is VERY costly, in fact. So our very creative Jeannette has opened an ONLINE STORE where she is selling her hand made greeting cards, homemade scented soaps, and customized calligraphy. There is a link to Jeannette's store in the sidebar of this blog. It is called Sofya's Words. Proceeds from all sales will go toward funding their adoption. 2-year-old Eirena is looking forward to being a big sister!
