The Spirit Of Adoption In Motion!!!!

This is a must read and an action now kind of thing!!!

Friends, I have something truly wonderful to share with you. Our friends the Bohlender's just got twin girls today. I say "got" because less then 24 hours ago someone posted a comment on Randy Bohlender's blog saying that their sister in law gave birth to twin girls and wanted to give them up for adoption, and did any one at IHOP want them. Not just was this an answer to prayer for the Bohlender's who had wanted to adopt twins, but they have said to the Lord that they would take any baby or babies that the Lord laid before them. After tracking the commenter down and found out that in 48 hours the babies would go into state custody Randy and Kelsey hopped on a plane to get these little ones with zero info. about them other than they needed to be ransomed. They met the birth mother, she signed them over, they borrowed money to pay the lawyers, bought some car seats and rented a hotel where they are now getting to know these two precious love bugs. Click http://rbohlender.blogspot.com/ to read Randy's blog and http://tracieloux.blogspot.com/ to find out how you can give towards their $15,000 need. There is coming a day very soon where people will just know that they can call up a house of prayer and ask if there is anyone who would take unwanted babies. We have to be ready. Contact Tracie Loux at: tracie@christianadoptionconsultants.com to find out how you can be ready to ransom a little one who needs a home. Psalms 68:6,7 God is doing a new thing and we as the body of Christ need to do all that we can to partner with Him. Not everyone can take in these little ones, but we can all pray and we can all give something.

The Bohlender's are going to need a lot. These little beauties are around 5lbs a piece so they will need preemie clothes, preemie diapers, a double stroller, and all that comes with babies times two. I am going to start collecting things for them and if you would like to drop something by for them or mail them something please email me at zadok78@hotmail.com for my contact info. and address. They are awaiting state clearance like us before they can return to Missouri, but lets welcome them home and shower them with love and supplies!

Kristi,
I think someone already gave them a double stroller and a double crib or whatever you use for twins... so they're set on that.
They had to buy car seats in FL obviously, but there's still plenty they need that's for sure!!!!!

If you gather preemie diapers be sure to tape the receipts to the packages as we all know how fast babies grow!
