As some of you may already know, we are in the process of trying to adopt our current daughter Sasha’s biological baby sister, Megan. Today Robyn, Raymond and Sasha will be flying to Bulgaria to visit Megan and make their presence known to the powers that be of how serious our intent is. We are deeply touched each time we see the conditions there and are praying that if you would like to make a donation to these particular orphanages’ children, you may do so by contacting us directly – or for tax deductible purposes you may make contributions to Lutheran Community Services of Southern New England (LCSSNE) comments “Bulgarian Orphans” 2139 Silas Deane Highway Suite 201, Rocky Hill, CT 06067-2336.

100% of all contributions will go directly to these designated orphanages.

We thank you, and we know the children thank you.
