A teacher friend in Thailand contacted me one day with a heartfelt story about the picture on the left. Her group of students heard about the devastating typhoon that visited the Philippines and displaced many children. The class decided they want to help. Their heartfelt gift was received with so much gratitude. This story is one of the stories I have kept and will always keep in my heart.

“We are all woven together in the great web of humanity, and whatever we can do to benefit and uplift others will reflect in blessing upon ourselves.”
I sold my chickens' eggs to friends and collected money. I bought clothes and sandals for the children. It makes me happy to see them wearing comfortable new clothes instead of ones with holes on them.
I wish that they will be blessed by it and know that God loves them.
