Rest Stop: Thanksgiving

On this holiday, I'm soooooooo thankful for you and the way you are investing in our mission: "Demonstrating the love of Jesus Christ by equipping local churches in southern Africa to meet the physical & spiritual needs of children orphaned by AIDS in their communities."

Today, as I go through the joys and all the food of the holiday, know that I'll be thinking about you all and the way you are allowing the dreams of parents to be remembered, even though they have passed away. You have allowed children to stay engaged in developing, as their parents hoped they would.

Thank you, friends, for Being a Voice for this potentially forgotten voices in southern Africa: the kids, their parents, and the churches that bravely champion their cause. We'll forever be thankful for your gifts, prayers, and love.

With love and thanksgiving,
Ryan

PS Over the holiday --- it's a great time to gather around and meet Neatness, age 14, or show people in your life who have not seen it. For your convenience, here's the video again:
