When I first decided to do this whole quilts for orphans bit I originally thought I'd choose an orphanage and then once we collected as many quilts to give each child one, we would ship them over.
Well, we've since had a better opportunity come along... having a couple who is adopting a daughter from Uganda bringing them over with them and giving them to the children themselves. Their originally scheduled time to travel was in December, but now, it's in 3 WEEKS! That means they want us to mail them the quilts by this weekend!
Praise the LORD that an orphan will be with her forever family sooner, but yikes on our deadline being so soon!
So, if you have a blanket, quilt or are finishing one up, please send it to me immediately so it can be added to the shipment.
*If you cannot get it to me by then, have no fear. We have another friend who is traveling to Uganda between Christmas and New Years who will be able to bring a few with her, but not a lot.
Thanks so much for your support!
