In times like these--when there are no sufficient words, we press into an all-sufficient God. Praying for you, Mike and Pure Charity team. Jesus- please be near.

Oh Edie, I am so sorry for your great loss. But I am so thankful that it is all replaceable. I pray that God would get great glory. He must have found y'all worthy to face the valley of the shadow of death. Praying for you and rejoicing with you for His mercy.

I LOVE how God takes the impossible and makes it possible. *just like that* Some hair brained idea you had :) I tweeted it, facebooked it, and wrote a post about it http://www.wearethatfamily....

But truly, I just want to be a vessel.

Hi Sally,
Thank you for your comment. I value my reader's opinions. I understand
your point and I'm actually moving to WordPress at the end of the
month and will be redesigning my blog. I will only have half the
number of Mom ads you see now. I understand that the RGM ads are
distracting, but this is really the only way I make consistent money.
I actually deciding to try harder after returning from Africa to
monetize my blog so we could sponsor more kids. I hope if you truly
know my heart and read my posts, you know that I am monetizing my
blog, so I can use it to make a difference. Again, thanks for being
candid. You've been heard and you will see a difference in the next
few weeks.

Blessings,
Kristen

Hell, yeah! (I'm hoping you read my White Girls Can't Dance post and don't think I'm just randomly cussing at you ;D)

One of my favorite memories of Kenya.

We sponsor Bereket, Ephantus, Makena and Judith thru Compassion. We're getting rid of the fluff in our life so we can add several more!

Hi Angie,
Well. It is a small world after all ;D Thanks for your prayers. I
needed them in Kenya and continue to need them :)

I just remembered that we will get to meet! I'm speaking at Relevant
too, so get ready for that big hug.

And yes, to the whole Nashville thing. I fell in love with Keely and
she told me that Nashville is a lot like Texas.

Love,
Kristen

Angie,
You don't know me AT ALL. But I feel like I know you. Weird how the Internet works ;D. But I've been reading your blog for a very long time and I just got back from the Kenya Compassion trip with Shaun Groves. I don't think I've ever been more impressed with anyone (Shaun).

My life if pretty much ruined from seeing so much in Africa. But in a good way. Or I should say in a God way.

Anywho, we live in a pretty modest home, but in a very affluent area and we're meeting with a realtor tomorrow. We want to sponsor more kids and this seems like the best place to start. I so get your heart and I just wanted to thank you for putting this out there. We will pray for God's clear plan to be revealed for your sweet family.

I woke up today with tears in my eyes, missing the smells of Kenya (that made me sick while I was there)...proof that my life as I have known it -is ruined. I'm so proud of you. Your blog alone has led to more sponsorships that ENTIRE trips. You've got the battle scars to prove it.

Just FYI, I wrote a post on Wednesday, sharing ideas for writing letters to sponsored kids (like topics to talk about, items that okay to send, etc). Thought your new sponsors might like this info.

Luv you.

Jennifer, I love your heart. I feel the same way for my kids. We've already had a "family meeting" and have some big changes in the works. I'm still trying to figure it all out, but I'm compelled to live differently, to raise my kids with a view of the world. I can't wait to see how you and your hubby lead your family. Hugs.

I'm in shock too. Disbelief. I'm so glad I have you guys, my fellow team of Kenya bloggers to help me process the hell I witnessed today.

Oh, that video, girl. I've been blubbering since I watched it. My hubby, kids and I prayed for Dan during the days he was lost. We love Compassion so much and so, it just seemed natural to help carry that burden.

I can't tell you the JOY I experienced in watching that video with my children and husband. It was such a direct answer to prayer, I know their faith grew. MY faith has grown.

Thank you for sharing his story with us.
