Shop 4 the Girls!

Five years ago my youth pastor and his family packed up and moved to India to be missionaries. In India if they find out they are going to have a girl they either abort the baby girl, or after they have the baby girl they will just leave her. Two years ago at age fifteen my old youth pastors daughter had a vision to open an orphanage for the baby girls. Being only fifteen she needed help and guidance to be able to follow thru. Just recently they were able to get a building. They are in desperate need for volunteers to help work as well as helping with the foundation of the building. We have been told as of right now it is going to cost thousands of dollars yearly to maintain it. I realize it is last minute but if your free this Saturday, the 21st, we would love to see you at the fundraiser we are hosting for Shiloh's Shelter. We do not have any clothes, but we have shoes, tons of furniture, old antiques, and things for your yard. Come out and support an amazing vision. Shop for the girls! Learn more and follow up at Shiloh Shelter.

    1. There are a lot of ways to help out with the Shelter. We are currently picking up baby girl clothes here and then in stores just buying a few when they go on sale. Or at Baby's R Us, they sometimes have sales on diapers and whips or formula, and we are trying to stock up. My mom's friend tries to go to India to see Shiloh at least twice a year. But you can always drop it off at Mount Pleasant Baptist Church in Colonial Heights off of Ellerslie Ave, but the address for the church is actually 3110 Greenwood Ave.
