Looking for some great Christmas gifts that keep on giving?

It's hard to believe that Christmas is only 31 days away!!!

The count down has begun, let the shopping begin!  I have some great ideas for anyone looking to buy a gift for coffee connoisseurs, jewelry junkies, or the humanitarians in your life.  Products purchased through Just Love Coffee and 147 Million Orphans are of great quality and are gifts that just keep on giving.

Just Love Coffee is an amazing company that will send $5 for every bag of coffee purchased to our adoption agency on our behalf PLUS 5% of all sales are donated to Charity:Water!  Not only is it GREAT fair trade specialty coffee, but it helps coffee farmers in African receive just wages for the products they grow and JLC helps save lives by providing clean water through Charity:Water.  They are helping orphaned children come home to their forever families and are preventing children from becoming orphaned in the first place!

Our family is honored to be included in Just Love Coffee's most resent video called "The heart of coffee; One bag at a time."  We are featured about 1-1/2 minuted into the video :)

147 Million Orphans have some super cute stuff.  I have a few necklaces and earring sets left for anyone interested in them.  40% of the proceeds goes toward our adoption PLUS the sales help to support a feeding program in Jinja, Uganda and Amazima Ministries.  Necklaces are $20/ Earrings are $15.  I have 3 sets left :)

If you see anything else at www.147millionorphans.com that you want 
let me know and I will put in a new order!!!

A few other AWESOME places to shop in my opinion are:
  1. Samaritan's Purse
  2. World Vision
  3. Heifer International
  4. Compassionart
  5. City Team Ministries
  6. The Hunger Site / Global Girlfriend
  7. Ten Thousand Villages
At these sites you can find unique, one of a kind gifts.  Or, for the person who already has everything, donations can be made in their name.  This year I am asking for something from the Samaritan's Purse Gift Catalog from my kiddos!

A gift opens the way and ushers the giver into the presence of the great.
Proverbs 18:16

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.
James 1:17
