Attention Coffee Lovers and/or Adoption Lovers

As we've mentioned in a few recent posts, Matt and I, along with our Gaby baby this time, are beginning the next steps in our journey. And we are excited! We've decided, actually God sort of decided for us, that the 7,333 miles from Elyria Ohio to Addis Ababa Ethiopia is really not that far when you're thinking about finding your forever family.

Did you know that the Bible mentions orphans (and widows) over 500 times. If God is going to talk about something 500 times, it must be important and we'd better listen. Unfortunately, it is expensive to bring orphans home to their forever family, but no expense is too great when God instructs you to do something.

And fortunately for us, God has risen up wonderful people who start amazing companies to help families bring home their children. Just Love Coffee is one of these companies. You may have noticed the Just Love Coffee button on the side bar of my newly designed blog. By clicking on that link you will be directed to our 'store,' lovingly named Where Coffee Brings Family. At our store you can buy fair trade coffees and lots of other fun coffee paraphanalia to help us raise money for our next adoption. We get a percentage of everything that sells from our store: like $5.00 per pound of coffee, $1 per coffee scoop and $3.50 per shirt. Isn't that so awesome? You get to buy wonderful tasting, fair trade coffee and we get a little closer to bringing home our baby/child/children (whoever God has for our family!).

I hear that the coffee is amazing, but I'm not a really big coffee drinker. Peppermint Mocha from Starbucks or the new caramel Frappe from McDonald's - sure, but coffee... ehh, not so much! So, if you do buy some, leave me a message and let me know how it is or which is your favorite flavors. I'm thinking that this could make a nice present for some of my coffee loving friends.

So click here or on the link over in the side bar and head to our store. Make sure you read the "Our Story" tab and learn all about the Weber family and why they chose to start this wonderful business.

And if you don't like coffee... please feel free to pass along our story and our link to your coffee loving friends!

Love & Blessings,
Meredith
