What difference can a string of beads make?

Many of you know that we have recently been selling products from 147millionorphans to help raise funds for our adoption travel expenses. My favorite thing that we are selling are the Ugandan Magazine Beads--whether you buy any from us or not, I want you to know at least a part of the story behind those beads. God is doing an amazing work in the lives of the women who are making them. Please take time to read this blog post from the young lady who began Amazima ministries--this is a beautiful picture of God's love and the body of Christ.

Once you have read it, go to 147millionorphans.com and consider purchasing some beads for a Mother's Day gift. You can order some directly from their site or you can email me and I will order them for you as part of our fundraiser. Either way, a string of beads can make a difference for a real mother who is trying to feed her children and can make an eternal difference as she hears and sees the Gospel preached and lived out around her. These women are our sisters in Christ and I praise God for their example.


Grace and Peace to you,
Casey
