Finished Book

I just finished a wonderful book by Melissa Fay Greene, There Is No Me Without You. I recommend this book to anyone who shares a passion for orphans or if you are interested in international adoption. It is also very informative about the AIDS pandemic we are facing in Africa. Makes me want to help even more. Thanks Carol.

Going to Africa!

check out our support letter....maybe you can help

                                             

Dear Family and Friends,

As many of you know Jennifer had the opportunity to travel 

with a Go Global Missions team to Swaziland, Africa last year. 

The trip made such an impact on her that we have decided to go 

back together in July. Not only will we be partnering with 

Children’s Cup International Relief, but we will also take part in 

launching a Healing Place Church campus.

Swaziland has over 11,000 children living with AIDS and thousands 

more affected by the disease, that has claimed both parents and loved 

ones. As a result, children are left hungry and with no means to pay 

for education or medical care. But, as Jennifer saw first hand, Children’s 

Cup is ministering to these children by providing the basic needs of 

food, medical clinics, and education.

We would be honored to have the opportunity to be part of these 

efforts again and serve the people of Swaziland. We believe in being 

the hands andfeet of Jesus, and we invite you to join with us in 

impacting this community for eternity, either by donation or prayer.

Thank You,

Kevin and Jennifer Jarreau
