As many of you have probably heard, there was a major earthquake in China yesterday. The epicenter of the earthquake was in Sichuan province. Thankfully, Terra is not in Sichuan province, she is two provinces away. We're guessing that she probably felt the earthquake, but we're hopeful that she and her friends at the orphanage are doing fine. As of the last report, there are four orphanages in Sichuan province that the Chinese government has not been able to contact. There are also hundreds of children that have lost their parents during this terrible disaster and are now orphans. If anyone is interested in helping the children of China, Half the Sky (a wonderful non-profit organization) has set up an emergency relief fund. You can donate at their website: www.halfthesky.org
Please keep the people of China in your prayers.
