Happy Thanksgiving

November 9, 2007 by scot.

Thanksgiving greetings from the hearts of the African orphans to your heart. How overwhelmed the orphans would be if they could for just one day see for themselves the bounty that most of us take for granted. And how overwhelmed we, the sponsors of the orphans, and we who have an interest in their well being, would be if we had to live for one day as they have had to live for most of their lives on the streets of the cities and villages in Africa! These orphans have lived without hope, and life without hope is a pitiful life indeed.

The orphans who have been blessed to have already been taken into one of the orphanages where their food and clothing and shelter are provided have been given hope–a gift of hope from someone who decided to sponsor an orphan and share their plenty with an orphan child who had nothing.

You who have sponsored one or more orphans have experienced the thrill, the joy of knowing that you have made a difference–a life and death difference–in the life of a child. Would those who have not yet had that experience, please think about it as you plan and prepare for this Thanksgiving season. Would you not like to do your part to feed the children who otherwise would go hungry? Your decision to sponsor an orphan will provide food, clothing and shelter for an orphan who would otherwise be hungry, near-naked and homeless, void of hope both for today and the future.

Sponsor an African orphan that is suffering because of poverty and enjoy a real Thanksgiving experience! Feed the children, and you will be “fed” yourself, filled with the joy of providing comfort and hope to one who has known little if any of either during their brief lives.

Blessings to you on behalf of Hearth to Hearth Ministries’ orphans and orphanages. Join volunteers in making a difference in the lives of orphans.
