2011-12-15T15:51:00.000-07:00

She's beautiful and waiting for a family

She Deserves a Family

She needs love...She Needs YOU!

Will you say No?

OR will you reach out to her?

Will you donate to her adoption fund?

Will you share the need for her to have a family?

Will you adopt her into your family?

Will You?

Janelle - Urgent

2011-12-15T15:18:00.000-07:00

Have you met Janelle?

I haven't but would love to. Her picture, description and circumstances Tug at My HEART -- BIG TIME!

She waits for a family in an orphanage!

She faces transfer to an institution very soon!

She faces a 'future' of being bed ridden or "life" in a chair

She is FOUR years old.

She deserves a chance at life and love with a family.

She IS one of God's magnificent children!

Is God calling you to adopt and save one of his children?

Now is the time to listen and move forward. Safe a life.

Until She has a FAMILY!

2011-08-11T12:09:00.001-06:00

Does God call us to Adopt?

Does He call us to help a specific orphan?

That's the only way I can explain my connection to a special young lady. See, I first discovered her during a Winter hosting program. I just knew we would host her that Summer...but didn't. A host family did come forward for her...but then had to back out. So, we were offered another chance to host but got scared and let her get another family. So after Summer hosting she still needs an adoptive family ASAP. Why the rush?

*She be 16 years old in April which means she will be turned out onto the streets with no means to make it on her own. She may very well become a statistic and commit suicide and/or become involved in prostitution.

*She lives in an orphanage reported to be 'one of the worst'! I've come to understand this to mean a lack of food, water, power and older kids in gang mode to survive. A simple shower we take for granted here in our comfy homes is a bucket of water on occasion there. Clothes are not your own and clean ones are rare. Maybe to some children, this is all they know but this young lady lived with her mother until swine flu took her away within the last couple of years. Imagine what a life altering shock that must have been !!!!!!

So, until SHE HAS A FAMILY I will do all I can to help her, despite many dead ends already. Won't you join in praying for Anya and watch God's amazing plan unfold? I can't save all orphans but Maybe I can help make a difference in the life of ONE!

Love them Already!

2011-06-25T17:43:00.002-06:00

URGENT: Many of us Love Them already! Two amazing boys, orphans, Sasha and Danyl, need a family!!

They need someone TO LOVE THEM NOW!

They can be adopted together or individually.

Many Thanks to Sherry for sharing them with us. She loves them as much as she can while she's there for the adoption of her 2 children. All along, knowing and feeling the heartache of leaving them behind. They ask to go home with her and return the love she has for them. They are so ready for a family and they are so much like brothers already!!

Please pray a family for Danyl and Sasha.

Also Known as "Owen"

and "Cole"

Doing Nothing...

2010-09-07T21:11:00.001-06:00

...means children die. Olga is the most recent loss added to the page below. This picture is dated Aug. 2009 so nearly a year later, she's gone...never knowing the love of a family that ALL CHILDREN DESERVE! It's just wrong! It's ugly! It IS reality when we do nothing. Likely, she never knew the comforting embrace and loving ways but was familiar with neglect and loneliness...!

What about Natalie?

2010-07-23T15:04:00.000-06:00

This year Natalie turned SEVEN years old!

Has she been forgotten?

Poor darling Natalie is living in an insitution, not an orphanage, a mental institution.

I ask you - does she deserve that?

Can you help?

Pray that a family will rescue Natalie from the hell that is her world!

3 Girls - Time slipping away

2010-06-26T11:59:00.002-06:00

3 Beautiful Girls in an Eastern Europe Orphanage #11

All 3 could be adopted together

Nastya (11)

SHE IS NOW APPROACHING 5 YEARS OLD - URGENT THAT SHE FINDS A HOME SOON!Girl, Born July 27, 2005

Nastya was born with spina bifida and minor hydrocephalus. She has had corrective surgery, but is not able to walk. She has already turned 4 and needs a family right away to save her spending the rest of her life bedridden in a mental institution. PLEASE HELP! More photos available, please inquire. I have $25 in my grant fund towards the cost of my adoption!

Olena (11)

Girl, Born November 10, 2006

SIGNIFICANT RISK, PLEASE ADOPT ME SOON!!

Olena has blonde hair and ice blue eyes. She struggles with the effects of FAS, but she is growing and doing well physically. If you are unfamiliar with FAS, please spend some time researching this condition. Just as with Down syndrome, FAS and FAE have a wide variation of effects on each child, both medically, physically, and cognitively. This is typically dependent on how long during the pregnancy the mother consumed alcohol, and of course, how much. There is no way to know this ahead of time.

More photos available, please inquire. I have $0 in my grant fund towards the cost of my adoption!

Trina (11)

Girl, Born September 22, 2006

SIGNIFICANT RISK, PLEASE ADOPT ME SOON !!

Look at the smile on this pumpkin! She struggles with the effects of FAS, but she is growing and doing well physically. She does have some spasticity, but she gets around quite well. If you are unfamiliar with FAS, please spend some time researching this condition. Just as with Down syndrome, FAS and FAE have a wide variation of effects on each child, both medically, physically, and cognitively. This is typically dependent on how long during the pregnancy the mother consumed alcohol, and of course, how much. There is no way to know this ahead of time. More photos available, please inquire.

Anne Marie (20)

2010-05-20T10:40:00.001-06:00

I want her to be loved and cherished for being the amazing little girl that she is and for her life to have value and potential.

(new pic of Anne Marie)

Anne Marie (20)

2010-05-19T23:54:00.001-06:00

More beautiful than these pictures could ever begin to capture, this is Anne Marie! (we share a name ;). She is in Eastern Europe, in an orphanage where another little girl is being adopted from. Anne Marie is apparently among those that don't get as much attention...sadly. She needs to know the love of a family and to be someone's sweetheart! Could she be yours?

Anne Marie (20) Girl, Born November 25, 2005

http://www.reecesrainbow.com/atriskwaiting.html

Oh someone, see past this little bald head! They shaved them for the summer months! Blonde hair with dark blue eyes, this muffin needs a mama of her own!

Miss Anne Marie does have a heart murmur that should be checked once home. But I can't wait to see her with her long blonde hair, and a sparkle in her beautiful blue eyes.

I have $1075 in my grant fund towards the cost of my adoption!

Gavin Needs a family ASAP!

2010-05-06T10:51:00.005-06:00

5 Year Old Gavin

is "facing imminent institutionalization"!

Imminent: likely to happen without delay; impending!

Gavin deserves a family!

Yes he has Down Syndrome. In his country in Eastern Europe that's reason enough to be sent away to an orphanage.

Gavin is healthy and a favorite at his orphanage! Usually, that means a little extra attention but it's certainly not the love of a family! Please Help Find Gavin a Family.

Consider Natalia...

2010-04-22T17:15:00.003-06:00

...as your new daughter! She's so cute and happy and would thrive in a loving family environment!

Natalia

Girl, Born March 5, 2002

This beautiful little girl is waiting for her family to give her the chance to really blossom. Natalia was born with a complete AV canal, but she has had surgery and is totally healthy now. She is not taking any medications for her heart. She is a darling girl, but nonverbal. She is quite low functioning at this time. She is able to sit and crawl, she can stand with support, can climb in and out of her bed & cruise around the furniture in her room, but she is not walking independently at this time. She is not eating by herself either, but she certainly has the ability to learn to do all of these things in a family environment!

From a staff member that visited Natalia in April 2010: Natalia is a very happy little girl who clearly loves attention. She would take our hands and blow on them to make raspberry noises and then just laugh and laugh. She did this over and over and would go from person to person reaching and taking our hands and blowing raspberries. She climbed in our laps and gave hugs. She responded very well to the attention that we were giving her and despite the years she has spent in her current environment, she still has a sparkle in her eye.

Additional photos of Natalia are available.

Back to Basics

2010-04-22T13:21:00.003-06:00

When times are unbearable...and I can't begin to understand why a beautiful little girl named Chrissie, who has gone from orphan to much loved daughter, is now having to fight so hard for life and going through so many trials... http://networkedblogs.com/3ajpe

and frustration and anger try to get a hold on me, it's time to return to the basics...

Blog Buttons

2010-04-21T14:35:00.001-06:00

Today I added several blog buttons. It inspires me to keep fighting for the children when I see the buttons...knowing these children ARE being adopted and that families ARE able to make a difference in the lives of God's little ones!

I see Life in her Eyes!

2010-04-10T14:25:00.005-06:00

I never stop thinking about Sarah. I know there is so much potential in this little angel...IF she gets adopted. With her latest picture I see so much life and light in her eyes. I see interest and curiosity...she is in there and just needs a family to love her and fight for her.

Stellan

2010-04-09T11:35:00.005-06:00

**Stellan**

So Cute!

Boy, Born November 03, 2005
Stellan has Down syndrome and a mild degree of congenital cardiac malformation – foramen ovale, without hemodynamic disturbances. He is walking but is reported to not be very active. He enjoys sitting and playing with toys. He will pick up a toy and play with it for long periods of time. He likes to go on walks outside.

Please Join Me in being a Prayer Warrior for Sarah!

She needs to be adopted or will otherwise

spend her life in an orphanage, in a crib!

Sarah needs and deserves the love of a family,

her very own Mommy and Daddy!

Her country is one of the less expensive countries

to adopt from and I hear the process is even easier

than most countries!

Sarah is one of the "Other Angels" with Reece's Rainbow

Alina is waiting...

2010-03-18T18:12:00.002-06:00

...to know the love of a family.

While she waits to be adopted

please pray that a family will find her SOON

and that her Adoption Grant Fund will grow,

to ease the finacial aspects of her adoption.

The fundraising efforts for Alina end in just a couple of days.

So, if you would like to make your *Tax Deductible* donation

please do so here on my blog via the "chip in" or ask me for the

address to send it directly to Reece's Rainbow.

Any amount will truly help and it all adds up so please give

from your heart and know God can multiply it!

The White Family and their Angels!
