Dresses for DRC update

Thank you for the great response to the Dresses for DRC that I'm sewing and selling to raise money to bring A.S. and M.J. home! I've added some new fabrics, so if you're interested but haven't had time to order yet, go check out these pictures. Don't wait too long - some of the fabric patterns are sold out or getting close to being sold out!

To date, I've received orders for 38 dresses.

21 of those will be headed to the DRC to clothe some beautiful little orphans! Way to live out James 1:27 guys!

My goal is still to take 100 dresses with me to the DRC. Will you jump on board? Will you consider donating $20 to clothe an orphan and to help pave the road to bring my 2 precious girls home?

Email me at rachelaheller@yahoo.com for more information.

Sewing the dresses has become a family affair.
 
Mati is thrilled that she's such a big helper!

The finished product!


Right now, the first 3 families to adopt from the DRC with my agency are there in Kinshasa (the capital city) picking up their little ones. So exciting! Please pray for safety and health for all of them, as well as for a quick and easy bonding and attachment period with their children. It will be a huge adjustment for all of them! The agency director is there with them and is planning to visit all the children currently being adopted, including A.S. and M.J. This means I will hopefully receive new pictures, video, and information soon. Hooray! Continuing to pray for the process to go smoothly and speedily. Continuing to hope that my girls are home by the end of the year.
