I’m so happy to report that 7 friends of New Thing have given generously to meet our $1,000 Matching Challenge!
Each gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar, its impact doubled.
So the first of 8 wretched old sofas will be replaced, for the orphans and house-parents in the Children’s Village at Kobryn, Belarus.
The brand-new custom-built number has already been ordered. I’ll let you know when it’s delivered.
When we confirm it’s what we hope for — not only attractive but also sturdy, rugged, with a child-safe design —
Maybe we can replace the sofas in more of the Children’s Village homes later.
God bless all who give. More adventures to come!
Thanks for journeying with New Thing!
Much love,
Doug Brendel
