PLEASE PRAY FOR THIS CHILD!


Dear All,
Alexandra came out of a fire alive, but now has to fight for her life and a normal future. She is 14 months old and she has burnt skin all over her body, damage facial bones (as a result of very high temperature). She does not have half of her face. She is in hospital in Krakow-Poland and one of the best specialist is looking after her. However she still has to go through many surgeries and then long rehab. Unfortunately her parents do not have any more money.
Therefore we are asking for your help. For each forwarded email her parents will get 3 cents. Please help them and forward that email to as many people as you can! How many ways can we count our blessings..Pray for this child.
GLOBAL FUND FOR CHILDREN'S NEW BOOK, FAITH. BUY NOW!
Faith helps young readers explore religious diversity and tolerance through images of their peers around the world: Bahá’í children in Mongolia help harvest a community garden; a grandfather in the United States teaches his grandchild how to braid challah bread for the Jewish Sabbath; a child arranges an intricate offering of fruits and beans at a Jain ritual in India; and in Uganda, a Muslim girl and her Christian best friend laugh and whisper to each other.
With striking photographs and compelling text, this book explores the themes of hope, worship, and peace while highlighting the practices that make each faith unique.
Faith is already generating buzz: Kirkus Reviews called the book “impeccably designed,” and stated, “This introduction to world religions deserves a wide audience.”
Buy Faith at our online bookstore (enjoy a sneak preview of the book on our homepage). Proceeds from the sale of this and other books benefit The Global Fund for Children.
Yours sincerely,
The Global Fund for Children Team
