This cause is so close to my heart. When Mike and I received the HIV results for Josie Love we were B-R-O-K-E-N. Our heads and hearts were shattered into so many pieces that we had NO IDEA what step to take next. The Lord brought us Carolyn (founder of PH) as a gift straight from heaven. She stepped in and got down to business. We gave Project Hopeful's attorney the reins and instead of 9-12 months, Josie Love was home in 7 weeks. They walked Mike step by step through all of the paperwork while I stayed in Uganda and finished Josie's medical care. The Lord connected our hearts to this ministry and this family. Gwen was working an Adoption Conference while I was away and met Carolyn in person. They instantly connected and Gwen has had a passion for Project Hopeful ever since. I LOVE the way the Lord just connects all of the dots. Josie Love is a product of this ministry. Because of that, Gwen and I want to do everything possible to help Carolyn.

We designed a tee that blends both of our projects together. 50% of the profits of this tee will be given to Project Hopeful. I look into Josie's face everday and tell her..."I chose you! YOU were created to be MINE!" The back of this tee says "chosen 1". Our hope is that you will buy one and "Choose" to feed, care for, adopt, love, help an orphan. Won't you join us in this partnership and help little ones just like Josie Love all over the world! You can purchase one of our new shirts at 147 Million Orphans.blogspot.com. The sleeves are a raspberry color, and the writing is in chocolate and mustard. They are so soft (same as our feed 1's), you are guaranteed to love it!
