Celebrating the Gift of Giving
Giving at it’s best! It’s a lifestyle! Flowing from Hearts of Gratitude! Each of us has been given much! We’ve been given life itself by our Creator! Jesus had a lifestyle of giving… His life lived for us! It was His heart of love, His desire for us to become all we are created to […]
Progress, Hope & Celebrations
Not Just a Building… the Place to Be! A Place of Hope! The Apparent Project buildings have been empty, lacking the kids & staff, lacking fun, activities & learning that normally occur throughout the year. It’s been a tough time. When no end is in sight, discouragement can set in. There has been some progress […]
Hope for Hacheley’s Family
I want to share the story of a close-knit, fun, and happy Haitian family! Why? Because there is HOPE in the midst of chaos. There is hope for the future. When an opportunity is available, there’s potential for change! The Ambranne Family… I first met the twins, Fransley & Francia, when they were preschoolers. I […]

Blog from the Heart
Today I just want to share from my heart. It’s probably going to be more like rambling. But these thoughts are rolling around in my head and need to be expressed. “Would you take checks to the bank for me?” Back in 2008, when my daughter decided to create a non-profit because she was heading […]
Meeting Peterson
