The Meadows Gifts of Love!





The photos below, are an example of what happens when a loving group of people come together to bless another. It shows how the gift of love can make the world of difference in the life of an orphan. I wonder what they would say if they truly understood that six special people a world away, planned, prayed over, packed and shipped these special gifts to them. This was a humble act of loving kindness by one of our sponsor familes and their Bible Study Small Group. On behalf of PRO, I personally want to thank you Jennifer, Bridgett, Heath, Roman, Jordan, and Scott!

Here are the photos of just our Bamboo Babies with their gifts... Several children in Hengshan were blessed by this special project...

We are working on some ideas to spread this project out to our ZJ and Changsha children and their orphanages for Christmas. Please watch for postings on how you can help. What a great way for your kids, friends, small groups to get involved. I would love to hear your ideas!

Thank you again to "The Meadows Gift of Love" group for blessing the little ones in Hengshan!
