EVERYBODY on the bus!

I’m so happy to report that 25 households gave generously to make the $3500 goal—

and I reported to Lydia Danielevna on her 85th birthday that her wish will come true:

ALL 35 children and their parents from the “Association Supporting Families of Children With Disabilities” in Dzherzhinsk, Belarus will experience an extraordinary summertime adventure...

Summer camp, a bus ride into the big city (Minsk), the circus, pizza, and other fun activities.

Lydia Danielevna was delighted — and the children will be overjoyed!

It will all unfold in August. Our beloved photographer Oleg will accompany the group and send us tons of photos, which I’ll pass along!

God bless all who gave, sending a beautiful message to Belarusian children with disabilities: 

Yes, you are loved.

(If you’d still like to give, every penny donated will go directly into Belarus, to meet the needs of children and adults all over the country.)

Thanks for journeying with New Thing!

Much love,

Doug Brendel
