Today when I woke up and got on here, I found out some amazing news!



Little Teri Lynn is going to finally have a FOREVER family!!  





                       
                            -♥-♥-








I was SO excited when I found out!

Now that Teri Lynn is being adopted it gives me more hope for Anastasia. I pray that Anastasia will find a family before being sent to an institution. No one deserves to go through that. Teri Lynn didn't either, but she is being adopted and that will ALL be over. She will have a loving family, and leave that terrible place!
God had her in His hands the whole time, and knew that it would all work out.  I know It will work out exactly the way He wants it with Anastasia too. It sure is hard to understand why God lets things happen... I just have to trust that it will all work out for the best. That Anastasia will find a family if that is what He thinks is best for her.

I can't wait to see what God has in store for both of these little girls! 


God loves you Teri Lynn and Anastasia!! I do too!! ♥

"Most critical needs at orphanages for today:

Clothes for Orphans
Orphans have very worn out clothes often. It is a real need and joy for these children to get new clothes! Children often need tee-shirts, briefs, trousers, summer hats, socks for boys, skirt or dress, summer-hat, spanx for girls. Undergarments for all kids. For winter time: winter sweaters, winter warm mittens, winter hats and scarf. The biggest needs in winter are warm jackets or coats. If children do not have a good clothes in winter time, they often are sick.


Food for Orphans
Many orphans are malnourished, a critical food shortage. Poor diet and health problems are a common for orphans.
With your help we can bring to orphanages flour, grits (spaghetti, buckwheat, rice, pease, etc) butter, fruits: oranges, bananas, cherries, strawberries, etc.(depends from the season).


Shoes
Shoes, sandals or winter boots are one of the Big Needs for Orphans. Their shoes and boots warn out, often have holes, or are too small and hurt their feet. It is BIG blessing and joy to get new shoes to kids!
 
Blankets
The blankets are worn out and children feel cold. It needed for orphans in cold climates, who sometimes have to sleep under one thin blanket.


Mattresses
It is big need in orphanages today. The mattresses are battered and torn, because they are old much. Children can not sleep good and peacefully on these mattresses and have healthy dream. Each morning they wake up with hurt of their body.


Household chemical goods and cosmetics
soap, soap powder, shampoo, toothpaste, tooth brush, deodorant for older kids. Do you know orphans do not have their own shampoo, deodorant and other things? Can you imagine what a joy is to them to get and have own these things?
 
Diapers
It is big need in mental institutions and children’s homes today! The quantity is unlimited, diapers for children in weight from 12 to 25 kilo, and also are critically necessary the adult sizes. Orphanages do not have finanses enough to cover these needs. Can you please, to help?
 
House slippers

As children often do not have sandals or shoes to wear it outside. They wear house slippers what they have to wear in their bedrooms. Children wear out slippers very fast. Very often they need to buy new it. Especially it is big need in special orphanages where are children with different special needs. 
 
Towels and Bed complete sets.
Children need also, because they do not have well them and it worn out often.

Do you know that most orphans don't receive any Birthday presents or the care they need. Do you know that orphans do not celebrate their birthdays? Please help us provide a special birthday celebration with gifts for an orphan without a family. You can send a Birthday gift. It can be any toy, doll, car for boy, game, color-book with pencils, whatever.

Toys
Bicycles, skateboards, dolls, children’s cars for outside, big balls, different games for inside of buildings and outside, etc. Children do not have often toys.

We want to get God's word to as many orphans as possible, bring them to know their heavenly Father and His Son who came that they might have life. Our wish is presented Bibles to teens but children`s Bibles with good and nice pictures to small kids, what help them remember and understand better Bibles stories. Can you help us to bring God`s word to orphans?

School supplies
Each orphanage where children educating has a big need in school supplies. It is   exercise book, pens, color pencils,

Orphanage Transformation
Orphanages have very old buildings.Often windows and doors, roofs and etc, are very old and with holes. Also it often have old and broken furniture what is not good to children and can bring a damage. Buildings necessary transformation and repair, need a new furniture.
Buy new washer-extractor, because old washers are broken often and workers have troubles with it. It is heavy to wash clothes for 80-180 kids.Children do not have place where to play.Our wish is to make new playgrounds or repair old.There are a lot of work!Please, can you help in this need?
