This past
week as we've been getting closer to Fathers Day I've been thinking a lot about
wanting to get back "on the road" sharing the Father's love to those
who don't have fathers to spend quality time with them. I'm really anxious to get back and I miss
everyone so much. Right now my hope is
to get things together so that I can leave in September. For those who've asked, I finally got my
surgery date to remove the metal from my elbow and ankle - July 9th. I am so looking forward to having the
mobility back in my arm again.
I am still
raising funds to purchase blankets for the Kemin Seniors Home in Kyrgyzstan that I mentioned in my last blog
entry. Right now I still need to get 13
blankets paid for and then I can put the order in. If you would like to help out each blanket is
$25 (Cdn). Please use the donation
button at the right side of the blog to give a gift on line. You can see other giving options by clicking
the "ways to donate" tab at the top of this page. Please remember to include a message advising
that your gift is for blankets. This
will not only help to keep some seniors warm this winter but it will also help
to support a family's livelihood in Kyrgyzstan.
Next
weekend (Saturday June 21st) I will be sharing some of my stories and photos from
Ukraine and Kyrgyzstan at the Prime Life Senior's luncheon
at Rock Church 222 Sackville Drive in Lower Sackville. If you're in the Halifax area I would be honoured to have
you come by. To reserve a place just
contact the church office this week at 864-3553 or rockchurch@rockchurch.ca. Tickets are $5 for the meal and it starts at 12 noon.
Please continue
to keep me in your prayers. Thank you for seeing my heart. Happy Fathers Day to all the fathers and the
fathers at heart out there!! Till next
time...я люблю вас!!
