Candy for the Soul

Wonderful things you should know about: 

My friend JD over at Compassion Can is taking a trip to Haiti with her daughter, Jillian. Check out what they will be doing on their trip, and you will soon understand why this is very near and dear to my heart.

If you want to be amazed and inspired, check out the Paralympics, happening now through September 9th. As far as I know they are not airing on U.S. television (you may possibly find them on cable or satellite, I am not sure), but the good news is that everyone can watch through live-streaming on the website www.paralympic.org


And last but certainly not least, these little girls have been broken out of the orphanage! 

They will be spending time in their birth country for another week or so with their mom and dad while they await paperwork to be finalized. Please pray for comfort for Dasha and Olena, as leaving the orphanage and beginning this new journey is quite scary. Pray that they would feel safe and secure with Craig and Bree, and that they would be able to sleep peacefully.
