Worth Double
Because I have two children who were born preemies, I know full well how far medical advances have come in the area of NICU and PICU. I get emails from the March of Dimes, and this fundraising drive caught my eye. I am copying this directly from the March of Dimes website:

Dear Children
It has come to my attention that many of you are upset that folks are taking My name out of the current season.

Just Do It
I saw Cathy of Cathy’s Creations post a link on Facebook a few days ago with a story about the staggering number of orphans post earthquake/tsunami in Japan. She said, “I wish there was something I/we could do for these children.” It got me thinking.
The Blessings of Saint Patrick’s Day to You & Yours
Beannachtaí na Féile Pádraig! That is the Gaelic way of expressing the prayer that you have all the blessings of Saint Patrick’s Day and all of the “luck of the Irish” besides.
Feeding the Homeless for Jesus
Lisa Voveris won our annual Missions Giveaway last week. Her mission is “Feeding the Homeless for Jesus,” a ministry that she runs out of her own kitchen. Outside one winter, she was so cold that her legs were hurting. She started thinking about the homeless people who live in tents in her city of Taunton, [...]
