Help Bring Jacob Home

My friend Brigitte is in the process of adopting a little boy from Eastern Europe. If you have looked around my blog you probably have noticed on the left column that there are three pictures of children with Down syndrome that are waiting to come home.

I want you to consider to help us bring Jacob home.

You will notice that I have a button for Tastefully Simple. If you click on the button, you will be able to order Tastefully Simple products on-line. They will be delivered directly to your home, and, best of all...25% of your purchase will go directly into Jacob's adoption fund!

This is a practical way for you to help us out. You will get the product that you love, plus you will know that you are helping a little orphan boy in Easter Europe so that he can have a mommy, a daddy, and a brother and sisters that will love him forever.

If you check out my friend's blog, you will see how much their arms ache to hold that precious child. Here is a baby that to many seems broken, he has been abandoned with nobody to care for him, yet, there is a family that wants to make a difference in his life and make him one of their own!

My heart aches with theirs because I now Jacob NEEDS a family. I also know that Jacob is the work of art of the Creator.

It is at times like this that I am reminded of the verse in James 1 where it says "Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself to be polluted by the world."

Jacob is an orphan, but I know I can do something to help him. I know I can do a small part to help bring him home, right where he belongs, with his family.

Please join me in this effort and....... LET'S BRING JACOB HOME!

  1. I love that verse in James. Love it. I'm also a big fan of Tastefully Simple so I'm going to head right over there and help bring Jacob home.

  3. I wish I could adopt another one. I really do. Instead, I support those who can. Thank YOU, for doing your part as well. If we all just work together!

    I wanted to let you know about the T21 Travelling Afghan Project! I hope you will consider participating and I would appreciate it if you could help spread the word! Thanks!
