Puzzle Pieces For Our Girls
This puzzle has been hanging around for awhile. We started this fundraiser a few months after we committed to Yana. We have sold a total of 115 pieces. We planned on running it until she comes home, sadly she isn't (at least not right now.) I thought about just stopping it, but the show must go on. We need to sell 435 more pieces at $5 each. That would make us an additional $2175 for our adoption of Phoebe +1. For every $5 donated you will get your name on the back of a puzzle piece. The winner will be drawn when all puzzle pieces are sold or when Phoebe +1 comes home. Your name will be highlighted. The puzzle will be put together by our family. It will then be framed with the wood of your choice with glass on the back and front (by Bryan's Framing here in Zanesville, OH.) That way you will see what piece you played in Phoebe +1's future. God bless and thank you so much for all of your support! Let's get selling-only 435 pieces to go!! All donations are tax deductible.

My name is Jaclyn Miller and I follow Adeyé's blog (www.nogreaterjoymom.com). Recently I felt like I was suppose to start advocating for children and families who are adopting and in need of finances as well as a backing in prayer. Once Adeyé made her "call to action", I decided to write each of you because I would like to feature each of you on my blog.(markedbyheavenadoptions.blogspot.com) see blog post below.
ReplyDeleteWaiting to tell a story
Two years ago my husband and I had the opportunity to travel back to one of our all time favorite places. Visiting friends, who really are family, loving on the least of these (who we consider our kids), and partaking in a trip that for us looked pretty normal...
Little did we know that that trip would FOREVER change our lives. ;)
Although I would love nothing more than to share our story with you, right now we cannot. Because we are friends with the director of the orphanage, our information could be monitored and it could compromise the adoption...
So here sits this blog, waiting to tell a story.
Do you have a story?
Recently another blogger (Adeyé, www.nogreaterjoymom.com) Asked those of you who are fundraising, in a financial crunch and traveling soon to to share your story with her and that she would create a link so that your story would continue to be told. Well I too would love to share your story, because I do believe that when the body of Christ comes together we will see a changed world. And I want nothing more than to advocate for you, your family and sweet child(ren).
What to do:
1- please send an email to markedbyheavenadoptions@live.com
2- share a brief 2-3 paragraph story of you, your family, child and anthing else you'd like readers to know
3-prayer requests
4- a photo of your family or child
5- a blog or link to where they
If this is something you are interested in please let me know, I look forward to partnering with you.
Blessings,
Jaclyn Miller
