Emergency Help Needed!


Friends...
I need to tell you about an immediate need. While I was in Africa we worked with orphans at the Canaan Children's Home. This place is amazing! I just got word that there was a terrible fire there that completely devastated the junior girls dormitory and damaged the senior girls dormitory.

There is an emergency fundraising campaign underway to pay to rebuild the dorms and replace the damaged items. I strongly encourage you to prayerfully considering donating.

It's not like these kids can just go stay at their friends house or the nearest hotel. They can't run to the mall to buy new school uniforms that were ruined. They need me, and you, and others to help. Canaan Children's Home is truly an extraordinary place living out the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

You can read all the info about the fire HERE. And send your donations in 1 of 2 ways:
