Vova's Birthday Project

Dear Friends,


If you remember in the previous post I told you about Vova, when he got the gifts and letters. He celebrated his 18th birthday on March 31. His status- He is still in the orphanage and has a job. He is soon to leave the orphanage and live by himself. We have some people from the U.S supporting him. My family and I are sending him a present for his birthday and I am inviting you to write to him.


This note will me translated to Russian and reviewed- Here are some Ideas;

• The note or letter you write to him could be an encouragement as it is difficult to leave the orphanage and to support himself without family. 
• Telling him about Christ and to follow  Him. 
• Birthday wishes
• Drawings or pictures- PS. We learned today he has an album of all the pictures we sent him during the years- so sweet.

Anything that would lift his spirits and strengthen him :) I highly encourage  you to participate in this. When he gets it I will post a blog with pictures(if possible) and the information about what he said. It's an opportunity to touch someone's life for Him. It doesn't have to be large letter just a note or drawing with your name. It makes them very happy and excited to get something from America and think that someone thought of them.


Here is how to send your notes:

• Be sure to include your name
• e-mail it to: fathertothefatherlesskz@yahoo.com
• No longer than 150 words
• Deadline: May 5th

In Christ,
Ashleigh
