If you know the Browns, you know they are a family who faithfully says “yes” when the Lord calls.

This week, that “yes” came in the form of a vulnerable mother from Africa who is new to the United States. She is currently living in a shelter with her five-year-old son after walking through a story marked by deep injustice and hardship.

The Browns have felt a clear prompting from the Lord to open their home to her and her children for as long as needed. This week, they will welcome this mama and her son into their home — and prayerfully, her two other young children will join them as well.

As you can imagine, there will be significant financial needs in this season. Expenses will include food, clothing, furniture, immigration-related costs, and eventually helping this mom take steps toward rebuilding and restarting her life.

This is an opportunity for us to surround the Browns and this precious family with tangible love and support. If you feel led to give, any amount will make a meaningful difference.

Most importantly, please pray — for the Browns as they open their home, and for this sweet mama and her children as they step into safety, stability, and hope.

Hello friends,

We are so thankful for the way that our community has rallied around our friends. From toiletries to new shoes, a bed, and toys of their own.

They have felt so much love and support over the last two weeks.

We now have a better scope of some of the finances for the next few months.

We have found an attorney to represent our friend in a couple weeks in court. Our immediate needs are the attorney fees which are $10,000 (Attorney fees cover the retainer charges, additional expedited emergent case related things due to the rapid turn around in trial and safety of the minors involved, and travel cost for two court hearings outside of our county).

Also, each week we have travel expenses as we have to drive across Ohio for her scheduled visits with her kiddos. Each visit has a cost of $50.

$50 a week for gas + visitation costs ($50) = $100 a week 

Please share and spread the word on ways to support her financially, as she is unable to work right now.

Thank you so much!
