How much is $10 worth to you? It could feed our children for a month.
Dear Friends and Family,
As I wrote about in a blog post and email earlier this week, the orphanage is facing an interesting situation in the next month. I gave a general request for help, a blanket statement that I make from time to time.
I decided to make it specific. And I did my math. I’m going to challenge you to feed the orphanage for a month. Yes, a month. But I’m not asking you to do it alone.
Between my facebook friends and those of you who receive this email, and those who read my blog (I realize there is some overlap) I figured that if each of you gave $10, you could feed the orphanage for an entire month.
Did you catch that? $10 as in the cost of a movie ticket, 2 awesome beverages from Starbucks, a sale DVD at Target, all of those things are around $10. For that amount, together you can feed all 74 children and the entire staff (yes, we are responsible for feeding the staff daily) for a whole month.
When is the last time you fed that many people for just $10? I’ve watched other ChipIn meters go to the goal. And then go past them. And then rejoiced that so many people came together to make a difference in the lives of kids.
So now it’s your turn.
I’m going to make it short and sweet, because I know you’re going to respond quickly.
So between November 8-November 13, I challenge you to feed my children!
Let’s do this!

Hurricane Tomas Update
Thank you very much for your prayers regarding the hurricane. The Lord hears and answers our prayers. This verse is a reminder of the power of God.
Matthew 8:27
The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey him!”
We received word that the children and orphanage are doing well. Everybody is safe and sound. Please continue to pray for PAP and those living in tent cities who have not been as fortunate as Maison.
