Last Week at Superwow

Today is our last day at Superwow. It's been awesome!!! Every week has been just a little different. Each group has a different personality. It's been amazing, and I've loved every minute of it.

Last night we did another chocolate tasting with the adults to raise money for Haiti. We video chatted with Will from Audio Adrenaline. They have an orphanage down there. We raised money for the same thing that we did last time...orphanage prevention. Basically, you can buy children in Haiti for really cheap right now. The reason is that the mothers would rather sell or give their babies away than to see them starve to death. Hands and Feet (Mark and Will's from Audio A's organization) has an orphanage prevention where they provide 20 mothers with enough baby food to feed them. This costs $25 a week per baby. If you add that up, it's $2,000 a month. That's rather stout for them to provide on their own. They basically said that whatever we raise can be used to save a baby from starving tomorrow. My heart justs breaks for that country.

Well, we are going to feed those babies for a month, because last night, we raised $2,000!!! If you are interested in giving to this huge need, contact Hands and Feet (handsandfeetproject.org).

Wow! Did you ever think that your parties with a purpose strategy would ever be used this summer at your camps? You and Brock are using your influence in such a productive way. Praise the Lord.
