Ruffled Feathers for The Sparrow Fund {Giveaway}

5.6.13

13 years married today and mother of 3 boys, she indeed ruffled some feathers when she opened her little business to sew dresses, twirly skirts, and adorable little dolls. But, we’re glad she did.

Valerie is a treasured member of the Chinese adoptive community, not as an adoptive mother at this point, but as a major supporter and encourager…and seamstress of pretty things for many girlies from all over.

As one of our partners to Build the Nest for The Sparrow Fund this May, Valerie has committed to giving 10% of all her sales this month to support adoptive families through the work of The Sparrow Fund. So, head over to her site and order a few things, k?

Just to encourage you all to do that, Valerie’s giving away one of her precious Lydia Love dolls worth valued at $41 with shipping. So, enter and share about Ruffled Feathers and The Sparrow Fund and our efforts to Build the Nest! Giveaways are fun…winning is always fun…but spreading the word is the purpose. So, rally behind us and help us do that!

Red Letter Ink for The Sparrow Fund {Giveaway}

5.6.13

In the first red-letter Bible printed in 1901, the words “universally accepted as the utterances of our Lord and Saviour” were printed in red. Lous Klopsch, the man who championed this first printing way back then, remarked, “In the Red Letter Bible, more clearly than in any other edition of the Holy Scriptures, it becomes plain that from beginning to end, the central figure upon which all lines of law, history, poetry and prophecy converge is Jesus Christ, the Saviour of the world.”

And, that, my friends, is the heart behind Red Letter Ink, a little Etsy store dreamed up by my friend Aimee Libby whose art serves to point to the central figure of Jesus Christ. Aimee has been a great support to The Sparrow Fund and has a real love for adoption as she has watched her twin brother and his wife’s family be blessed through it.

Red Letter Ink is partnering with us again to Build the Nest this May, donating (at least, according to Aimee) 10% of all her May sales to The Sparrow Fund. And, just to help get some traffic here so folks can learn about what we’re doing, she’s offering THREE 8×10 prints of the winner’s choice (over a $60 value!).

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
