Door Of Faith Nursery Fundraising Opportunities and
Building Updates!
Starting to COME TOGETHER!
If you haven't visited the
Nursery at the Door of Faith Orphanage lately, you might be surprised
at the progress being made! The second story is ready for the
roof and the plastering of interior of the first floor is
almost completed. Join us all summer long as work groups
from all over will continue to be involved with the build.
Remember those tiles that
many of you decorated or sponsored a child to decorate? Well they are
starting to appear! We still have some children left at the DOF that
need a sponsor and have almost 60 tiles left that for a 50.00
donation, YOU, YOUR FAMILY, or SMALL GROUP
can meet at COLOR ME MINE
in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA to decorate.

Over 15,000 Pounds of Food and Aid Distributed During
the Month of May!!

Children
at Risk ,

Several months ago it became
very apparent that with the safety, economic, and health concerns
confronting Baja Mexico ,
just trying to supply basic day to day needs to existing
ministries involved with children would become critical.  But thanks to the help of
several organizations (Global Aid Network, Convoy of Hope, Feed
my Starving Children, and Childrens Hunger Fund) and their
sponsoring donors, over 16 existing ministries operating in Baja
Mexico
have been blessed with much needed food and sanitization
items. These ministries serve orphanages, migrant farm
worker communities, and destitute families living in areas of severe
poverty throughout Baja.
As God provides these much
needed resources, both STM, Hilarious Givers, and Club Dust are
committed to ensuring these children's needs will continue to be met.
For more information on how you can become involved in
the distribution efforts, please contact Judd at

As plans are being made for
the summer season, we invite you to take advantage of all the
summer serving opportunities happening both locally and globally.
Whether its taking a one day or weekend trip into Baja Mexico to
help build or minister to families and children, bringing your
family to Santa Ana for a couple hours on a Saturday to help
distribute food to other families in need, or volunteering to help
with or participate in our summer fundraising activities, the idea
is to JUST GET INVOLVED.
Looking forward to serving
together,

can go to certain local libraries and post offices that make it a
quick and easy process. For more information on Passport
requirements go to:

Thanks in large part to the
generosity of many of you, we have raised and sent to
Rwanda
nearly $10,000 to get started on the first phase of the girls
dormitory building. That money will provide for the purchase
of cement, steel and bricks, and allow construction to begin.
Although there is a large fund raising goal remaining, it is
fantastic to finally have the project under way. We all play
an integral part in changing the lives of these girls.
Now all of us must work together, with God's help, to complete the
task. We are seeking your prayers, ideas, additional
contributions, or any other way you can assist us in reaching our
goal. If you have any ideas or want to be a bigger part of this
project, please call either Richard Cohen ~ 949-768-0599 or
Joe Corey ~ 714-931-5801.
