I'm so excited for the opportunity to partner with the beautiful Abbie from Five Days ... 5 ways in raising awareness as well as prayer and financial support for Parental Care Ministries. She and her family have supported the ministry for nearly 2 years now and are now supporting a 2nd child with the help of her blog supporters. Abbie is a beautiful, sincere,
funny, frugalistic fantastic thrifter, God fearing, family oriented
young momma of 3 young children with twin girls soon to make their grand
appearance. I have been an avid follower for a period of time now. When Abbie gets serious on her blog (she's a comedian for reals folks) it is as if she speaks directly to me and encourages
me in ways words can't describe. She is kind, genuine and humble. She and her hubby's love story is like no other! I know
with full confidence that if distance weren't a factor we would be fast
friends!
Abbie recently hosted a "silent" auction on her blog with 100% of the proceeds going toward the support of this sweet girl.
Meet 12 year old Sarah Birungi.
She
is not an orphan (praise Jesus!), but her parents are poor farmers who
can’t supply all her needs. In
her own words, she loves to study. Her favorite subject is math. She is
thankful for God’s protection. Her favorite Bible verses come from
Proverbs 1-7. And she wants to be a teacher when she grows up.
Isn't she adorable?
With that being said I knew I wanted to come alongside Abbie and support this ministry if even in a small way. So how did I do that? I bid on and won these beautiful earrings. My donation will support Sarah Birungi for one month.

How will my family and I continue to support Sarah?
By praying for her. I have printed her picture and have it displayed in our home. I have encouraged our kids to remember Sarah in their prayers and they are each working to save up their GIVE money (earned through a responsibility station we have just implemented) in Sarah's name to PCM.
How can YOU help?
By partnering in prayer;
By financially supporting PCM through the monthly support of a child;
By visiting Abbie's blog and "Shop My Closet" where 25% of all proceeds go directly to the ministry;
By contributing any monetary amount to Sarah’s monthly support by e-mailing Abbie directly via the E-mail Abbie button on her blog
