Happy holiday weekend...as I start this blog my son is giving me a verbal spanking and at the sametime telling me of the great network opportunities I am missing. His reasoning makes great sense and I will definitely follow up on his suggestions. Thanks son!!!

Now that two major things have been marked off my to-do list...Articles of Incorporation and the 501(3)c my focus remains but the intensity of my stand has lightened somewhat. I would like to share this, for the last 3 weeks I have been in excruciating back and hip pain. This experience not only delayed and possibly changed my mind about run a marathon in December but it definitely made clear the state of mind and being the children that G.R.A.C.E. will be ministering to.

These little people who have not been long on this earth have gone through such torture and loss of life. I understand consistent pain, I understand not being able to sleep at night, and I understand the need to have someone assist me. They live in constant pain, they live in constant fear, they have no one. They are vulnerable to degredation and abuse but their little voices are not heard. Plus a system (DHS) that was established to advocate on their behalf will not come to their aid. They need someone...they need intervention NOW! G.R.A.C.E. has the honor to be one of many who say enough is enough.

Opportunities continue to open to us that will allow us to touch and change their lives and to that we say thank You God.

I remain in His Grip!
