Priorities

The average cost of a Starbucks drink is $4. Most people spend an average of $21.32 a week on COFFEE. Now I get it, can't live without our coffee!

Ask yourself. Is making a difference in the life of a child worth it to you? If it were your child. Would it be worth it? We aren't asking much. 

Filling ONE heart is about half of what you would be willing to spend on coffee in a month. 

If it's not coffee.. is it eating out? A new pair of shoes? A purse? A new appliance? Furniture? or something small like cookies but often? A bigger better newer? The list could go on and on. We spend money on what we prioritize. If we looked at our checkbooks and purchases and the way we spend our time, could we say James 1:27 is priority? Our family sponsors a little girl. Grace is just as much of a priority to our family as going to Zambia is; as feeding OUR children is. Will we stop sponsoring her when we get on the field? NO. Making sure she has an education, gets fed her one meal a day (probably the only meal she will get all day) and her needs are met IS our priority. I'm not saying this because we are anything special. ANYONE can sponsor a child. We aren't. We are just willing. Will you take tonight. Pray about it. Ask the Lord what part he's asking you to play? If you go to bed and wake up in the morning and the answer is nothing. Then okay. BUT if it's more will you be willing to be his hands and feet with us? Also to be willing to give as he asks?

88 more hearts to fill; some are financially capable of doing more than one.

Our whole family is ready to serve and we can not serve alone. We need YOU to serve with us. KAI is working to combat the devastation by caring for those most at risk- the children-with loving, holistic care and an introduction to the Gospel. Through childrens homes, care centers, medical care, schools and programs to keep kids with their families.

* 1.2 millions are orphaned by the HIV/AIDS pandemic

* Only 57% have the privilege of going to primary school

* 115 new children have Hiv/Aids infections every day

Once we went to Zambia these statistics became a reality in our life. They became NOT numbers but FACES. They are children with beautiful hearts and dreams. Who have dreams for their futures and their country. Going there and meeting some of these amazing people I call friends; changed my life for the better! Kids Alive is already there caring for orphans. They need our hands and feet. Will you make orphan care a priority? A command to care for orphans and widows and not just in your "want" category. James 1:27 is pretty clear. Or support those who are (it's the same). If you have mentioned wanting to partner with us will you not wait and start today? Will you not only share but also start partnering with us today. 

88 people giving $35 a month

I know this isn't a popular subject.  Most people don't want to hear.  What I want to do is... tell you the difference you CAN make.  INSPIRE you to be a part of changing the world.  WE cannot change the world ourselves. We can't.  Together though, together, we can make a change.  We can help the ONE.  We can fill a need that is set before us.  What an OPPORTUNITY and privilege it is that we are ABLE to help!!!! Will you!?!?
