Missions Trip to China

Friends & Family,

As you already know two of my children were adopted from China. My husband and I adopted Ella from Gansu, China in 2013. I personally have been to China three times (twice last year!) In May of last year I was able to join a team from America World to serve at Ella's orphanage. It was an awesome experience to be on the other side of adoption (we met so many great children in desperate need of families.) During my time in China I felt lead to adopt a boy (we had already worked on our paperwork and we were ready to send it off to China the week I returned home.. our request was for another girl.) We received information about a little boy with cleft lip and palate and the rest is history. We brought our son Bennett home in December of 2014.

While in China we were able to meet some amazing children with both cleft lip and cleft palate (a special need near and dear to my heart since both of our children have cleft.) Without special bottles some of the children may not be able to drink their formula properly. This year America World (ACT) is teaming up with Hayden's Smile to provide cleft bottles and nipples for the children in orphanages and in foster care in China. I will be heading back to China in October. Will you join me on yet another amazing trip to China? Will you help me be a story teller for these precious children?

 All funds raised will be put towards travel and towards the cleft bottles and nipples. Thanks once again!
