~Sera's Caring Place~ ...the rest of the story


It was kind of mean of me to leave you in suspense for so long with my last post of Yours~Mine~& Theirs “sneak peek”  but we weren’t quite ready to reveal our my Mom’s idea.  The day has finally come to share with you what we’re up to…

My Mom and I have decided to help out Sera’s Caring Place.  {Go read her story by clicking on her name.  You may need to grab a box of tissue!} (please note: The donation button that is on Sera’s site is not our button so if you donate there we won’t have a way of knowing where to send your gift to…so come back here to donate and get your gift)

We can’t do this alone!  We need your help!  You are welcome to donate any amount you wish BUT with at least a $20.00 donation we will send you a necklace made with a Ugandan coin {crafted by my amazing Mom}.  Necklaces may vary depending on coin availability.  Every time you put it on to wear it it could be a little reminder to say a prayer for Sera and her boys.  All proceeds go to Sera’s Caring Place.
Please specify 18” with jewels OR 20” with coin only
You can donate to her “place” by clicking on the donate button here:



(or by clicking in the top right hand corner of my blog)


Thank you so much in advance and if you have any questions AT ALL…please don’t hesitate to message me and ask.



We would also like to THANK Paul Hunter for getting the coins to us!  We couldn’t have done it without you Paul!

{Yours~Mine~& THEIRS}


How it all began…

Several times in my life I have said I would love to go on a mission trip!  A few years ago Paul & Pam Hunter, with Next Generation Ministries, came to our church to share their hearts about the people of Uganda and their needs.  Since then there have been several groups from our church that have gone over there to do mission work.

I’ve always wondered…How can I help if I didn’t actually get to go over there?

My Mom and I had never really talked about this but one day she called me and said…”Can I come out to your house?”

After she arrived she proceeded to tell me about her creative idea to help out with an orphanage in Uganda.  She said…I don’t think it’s a fit for me to actually go there BUT I want to help out!  {Be careful what you say Mom…I may see a trip to Uganda in our future!}  She never ceases to amaze me and she is so very very humble with her talented ideas!

We had to do this as a team you see~
She’s the creative crafty one with all the ideas and I’m the blogging fool!  So between her talent and my mouth we knew it was a fit!  TEAMWORK!!

We’ve been in touch with Paul back and forth through emails and we are SO close to launching our {her} idea!  I can’t wait to share it with you!  As soon as we have all the “kinks” worked out we’ll let you in on a special little purchase and how you can help out too!  All proceeds will go to a dedicated orphanage in Uganda!
