November 6th is Orphan Sunday

Orphan Sunday is a day designated to raise awareness of the global orphan crisis. What can you do?

-PRAY for the estimated 163 million orphans around the world
-GIVE a monthly or one-time donation to orphan care
-GO on a mission trip to serve orphans
-ADOPT a child or become a foster parent

If you would like to make a donation, but do not have the money, there are ways to be creative. One thing we did a couple weeks ago was had a garage/bake sale and the proceeds were donated to Gift of God Orphanage. A friend of mine who brought some of her things to be sold offered to give her profit from Saturday to the orphanage as well. How sweet?!?

Another idea would be looking into couponing. There are a ton of websites that educate on how to save money through couponing. Maybe whatever you save could be donated to orphan care. Every little bit helps!

Here is a picture of a little display we had at our sale:
