Hope Blankets: Update!


Hey Everyone!  Just wanted to give a quick update on our Hope Blankets!  As you know, on Sunday, September 18, we had our Hope Blanket Kick-Off.  These blankets will be going to babies in two different Chinese orphanages.  We started out with 98 Hope Blankets, and 70 of them have already been sponsored.  These 70 blankets are now in the homes of their sponsors, who are praying over these blankets and for the babies who will receive them.  The stories I am already hearing of children and families praying for orphans are incredible. 

We have 28 blankets that still need sponsoring.  Here is how it works.

1.  Sponsor a Hope Blanket - $25
$15 will go for the blanket and shipping costs.  The rest will go towards helping with some of our adoption cost.

2.  Pray
Take your blanket home and pray for the child who will receive it.

3.  Return Your Hope Blanket
Return your blanket on or before Sunday, October 30, as we will be praying over the blankets as a church body.  At this time, we will collect the blankets and prepare them to be sent to China.

4.  Seek God's Guidance
Pray about how God would continue to have you involved in caring for orphans.

We are so excited about the 70 blankets that have already been sponsored, and so thankful for those who are praying!  Please pray with me that God will raise up another 28 people who are willing to be involved in orphan care by praying over a Hope Blanket and for the child who will receive it!  Thank you!
