Dear Family & Friends:
As many of you know, we are in the process of adopting a baby boy through Bethany Christian Services. We have been successfully matched with a birthmother (in Michigan) and our bundle of joy will be arriving in the middle of January!
As we have moved along in the adoption process, we are incurring some additional, unforeseen costs (specifically, travel to and from Michigan). We have pursued some different avenues of fundraising and have come up with the following opportunities.
Opportunity 1: Pray for us. Pray for our birthmother. Pray for our son (Emmett). Pray that the process goes smoothly and that we travel safely.
Opportunity 2: Join us for a Recycling Event. On Saturday, November 20th, from 9am-12 Noon, we will be hosting a Recycling drop-off at two locations. There’s nothing to buy! All you have to do is save your (or your neighbor’s) recyclable bottles and cans and bring them to one of two drop-off locations on that day.
Location 1: Our House, 28391 Pueblo Drive, Trabuco Canyon, CA 92679.
Location 2: (Great) Grandma’s House, 13362 Buccaneer Cir., Garden Grove, CA 92843.
Opportunity 3: If you enjoy coffee, this may just be the opportunity for you! We have set-up a “store” with justlovecoffee.com. As part of the store, they will donate $5 for each bag of coffee you purchase from our “store.” (Note: The shipping and handling fee is the same price for two bags as it is for one.) All you have to do is visit www.justlovecoffee.com/wislockifamily to purchase your Fair Trade coffee.
Thank you again for your support as we proceed down our adoption path. If you ever have any questions about the process, or are interested in an update, please visit us at http://wislockifamily.blogspot.com or E-mail us at wislockifamilyadoption@gmail.com
In Christ’s Love,
Bryan & Rachel Wislocki
