Miss Martha’s All God’s Children blog

Where did the year go?  I blinked and 2008 is almost gone.  There have been so many changes in our beloved country since my last blog that I won’t attempt to list them.  It is sufficient to say that God is still watching over his children.

I recently received an email that was very thought provoking and I want to share it with you.  “The bread that is spoiling in your house belongs to the hungry.  The shoes that are mildewing under your bed belong to those who have none.  The clothes stored away in your trunk belong to those who are naked.  The money that depreciates in your treasury belongs to the poor.”  (St. Basil the Great, the fourth-century Bishop of Caesarea)

Due to the decline in the stock market, many of us no longer have money that depreciates in our treasury, but for those who do, we need your help.

Several months ago, we started production on a very special limited edition sculpture dedicated to Doulos Ministry in South Africa, a hospice dedicated to taking care of children with the AIDS virus.  Check our their ministry website at Doulos Care Centre (http://www.freewebs.com/douloscarecentre).  This is such a needed ministry as many of these children would be left alone in a room to die if they were not rescued by Emma and her staff.

Made in the USA, Thabang and Nkozi are limited to 150 pieces worldwide and sells for $125 each.  MMO is donating all production costs so 100% of the proceeds goes to Doulos Ministry.

Our heartfelt thanks to all of you who participate in this endeavor.  For those who are unable, your prayers are just as important.  Emma recently had a nasty fall and broke her hip and leg so please remember her in your prayers also.
