It has become an international effort!! People have sent cards from South Africa, Spain, and Hong Kong. I have received comments and emails from Christians across the States as well.

I have a new goal since the Lord has surpassed the previous one of 1400.
That number was only an estimate. There have been fully 688 more than that total. 688 lives that will be touched with God's mighty love.
I do not know exactly how many kids are in each prison in Uganda.
The goal now is simply that not ONE. SINGLE. CHILD. is left out!! As the Lord leads, tugs on your heart to make one please do. It will never be in vain. The act of loving one, making one card adds up to much abundance.
I don't think it will be possible to know that eternal impact it will make for the Kingdom until we are in Heaven someday. I am anxiously awaiting that joyous day! Pastor Ernest, who I have had the special privilege of meeting in person, express this well...

Oh Moriah! I can't describe how it blesses my heart to hear this... Praise the wonderful Lord! He is so good and it is just amazing to watch how He works! My friend, you are an inspiration - keep on with this good work! May He bless you richly as you seek to touch the lives of these children! Hugs to you!
ReplyDeleteP.S. We are only able to post our cards on Friday, but we have around 20 (maybe more!) to add to the total:).
Kelly-Anne,
DeleteThat is wonderful!!! So glad you are as blessed by this as I am. Thank you so much for your encouraging words--they are precious to me. *smiles*
I added your 20 more cards to the total, making it: 2,109
So beautiful to see this story of God's true love unfolding in the lives of so many...
Just wanted to let you know my family, my mom's Bible study, and the 4th grade girls group at our church made cards so you can add 58 to the total :) It was such a blessing to be involved in this! Is the challenge over, or are you still accepting cards? (If it's still going I'll post about it on my blog.)
ReplyDeleteThat's wonderful!!! Sure, I'm still accepting cards. :) I have someone hosting a card making party on the 20th. More are welcome anytime so feel free to still post about it. Thanks!
DeleteWe sent in 40+ cards(I forget exactly how many now!) earlier and I forgot to tell you how many. Sorry bout that! Blessings on your work!
