I am involved in a ministry called Seeds of Hope that was started by another adoptive mom. We are kicking off a new program to match older girls in a group home with Pen pals here in the states. The girls (11 of them) are all orphans, all have a special need of some type, ages 14 - 18, residing in a home called Helena's House of Hope - founded and ran by an American Christian and his Chinese wife (just opened Sept.1). Helena's House of Hope is located in Jiangsu Province, PRC. Most, if not all of the girls, have lived their entire life in the orphanage. These children have a special place in my heart as we have two daughters from China, and both have special needs. This very easily could have been them, I immediately thought of the older girls involved in homeschooling. What a great opportunity for them to share their life with a girl their age and similar likes that lives in China. Terry (the founder) is teaching the girls English so this is a great opportunity for them as well. At first, all communication and pictures will be emailed to Helena's House so there is zero cost involved. We will try and match the girls with someone close to the same age and has the same interest, i.e art, creative writing, music, etc. If you would like to participate, please send me an introduction letter and picture, then I'll forward the letters on to the girls. I would like to have the letters ready to go by Oct. 27th. Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! Send me an email if you are interested in participating Thank you for helping to enrich the lives of these wonderful girls! |
