n 2007 during our rst trip to South
Asia we were given an opportunity to
minister at a children's orphanage. Up
until the moment we entered the orphan-
age, our experience had been one of see-
ing mostly darkness & hopelessness in the
country. Almost immediately we sensed
the presence of the Holy Spirit within the
compound and knew this to be a special
place ordained by God. After spending an
incredible day with these kids and the Pas-
tor/Director whom they refer to as "dad,"
we asked the missionary
who had taken us there;
"Where do they get their
support?" His response
was that the orphanage is
totally supported through
donations and because of
funding requirements
had no government sup-
port. It was then that he challenged us...
" en he said to them, "Whoever welcomes this little child in my name wel-
comes me; and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me. For it
is the one who is least among you all who is the greatest." Luke 9: 47-49

A seed was planted in our hearts and has
been growing ever since. We returned to
the orphanage the next year sensing an
even stronger pull. After our last visit to
South Asia we moved from South Caro-
lina to Florida where Frank took a Youth
Pastor's position. As we have continued
to be involved in di erent ministries in
Florida we have also continued praying for
and sending support to the orphanage, but
our passion in recent months has become
undeniably stronger. God has placed a
love and a desire in our hearts that will not
let up. We believe He wants more than
just our money. is passion is why we are
asking for your support in this mission.
We are in the process of answering a call
that God has placed
on our lives and would
like for you to partner
with us on this journey.
We have been invited
to come along side the
Pastor of this orphan-
age. We will be there
to encourage the children by helping with
their conversational English and letting
