One Year Ago

One year ago today I dropped my husband off at the airport for the 2nd mission to the Philippines.  This mission was very different than the first.  They were preparing the orphanage for children to arrive.  Building, painting, buying supplies, meeting families of the children God had selected to live at WHY.

While there, NINE children were taken off of the streets and out of the dumpsite.  NINE children moved from horrendous conditions of neglect, starvation and abuse to Wesley Home for Youth.

During 2010 WHY has grown to support 14 children, with the potential for more as more sponsors are added.  It is amazing to see the work of God's hand and exciting to know that more lies ahead.


Will you make 2011 the year you join us on this journey.  There are so many ways to be involved -- being a monthly sponsor, being a part of the upcoming mission team, donating time, services, or resources to help with fundraisers, using your talents to make things that can be given in the dumpsite, _____ (fill in the blank).  Let us know how you want to be involved.  There is room for you!

Happy Birthday WHY!

Thankful, Sheryl
