The document tells the story of a family who felt called by God to adopt two orphaned twin girls from overseas. Though they initially lacked the funds for the $25,000 adoption, they began fundraising through blogging, prayer, and events. They received the call that the girls were available and now need an additional $13,000 to complete the adoption. They are asking readers to share their story and pray for them to reach their financial goal so these girls can have a forever home.

To gain what he cannot lose. –Jim Elliot

2. ONCE UPON A TIME…

BIGGER plans orphans world wide?

8. “We are not all called
To adopt these children
into our families.
But we are called to LOOK at
them.
Even though it makes
OUR EYES BURN.
and be willing to let their needs
disrupt our lives.”
— Kristin Swick Wong

10. In March on 2012, God had
called our family to be
an adoptive family and we began
our journey.
We had little money, or means.
But we knew that
though our needs were big….
Our God Was
BIGGER.

11. So we
blogged…
We prayed…
We did fundraisers…

12. All with hopes that one day….
The phone would ring.

13. On July 8th 2012
We got the call that changed
EVERYTHING.
There Were
Not one, but TWO girls.
Twin girls.
Who needed a forever ho

14. Yes, you heard me right.
Twin Girls
3 Years Old

15. But…
Our race is not yet over.
Oh, no.
In many ways,
It’s just begun.

16. Remember our original goal of $25,000?
You know, the one we were
Only about $10,000 shy of?
.
Yeah, not so much. .
Two girls means (almost)
twice the price.
We need an ADDITIONAL $13,000
Making us in need of $23,000 total.
THAT WAS OUR ORIGINAL GOAL!!
We’ve got some mountains to move!

17. We still need help on our journey.
We still need great prayer.

18. Jesus replied, "I tell you the truth,
if you have faith and do not doubt,
not only can you do what was done to the fig tree,
but also you can say to this mountain,
'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and it will be done
-Matthew 21:21.
Our God is
GREATER

20. The average Facebook user has 100 Friends.
If only 20 people share our story, it will reach 2,000 people.
If 40 people share our story, it will reach 4,000 people.
If 100 people share our story, it will reach 10,000 people.
If 1,000 people share our story, it will reach 100,000 people.
Now, imagine if each of those people gave just $1.00
Together, we could help more than just two girls.
Together, we could make a difference.

21. All for Our King,
And HIS glory.
