furniture please.

In a stunning contrast to my post about the slums, we now want to provide children with beds, meals, clothing and other wonderful things that they are currently living without.

Imagine a child who sleeps on the floor, eats one meal a day and is torn apart by mosquitos at night.

Now imagine that child being tucked into bed, kissed goodnight, clean and safe, belly full. You can help us furnish our home by donating just $10. Find out more here: Visible Grace update.

And...thank you.

slums

We went to the slums last weekend. For a week now, I've been tossing words around in my head and on my laptop. I want to show you how people live. I want to show you their desperation, and their joy. I want you to understand, and I want you to mourn with me, and I want you to join me in this crazy endeavour; I want you to be as determined as I am to find housing, find parents, find security, find a better way for these kids.

There HAS to be a better way.

But words elude me.
