Latvian Angel Project

My beautiful friend Angie in Georgia is a part of a wonderful ministry called "The Latvian Angel Project"! In fact it was her involvement in this ministry that brought her to Latvia where she met and fell in love with Dzintars! 

Dz and Angie in Latvia when he was only 12 :) Ahhhh!


The Latvian Angel Project, a mission of Liberty Hill Church in Canton, GA, has been serving orphans in Latvia since 2005.  They work closely with the children's homes, their directors and other social workers to help bring a message of hope to the kids who live in the children's homes or who visit the day centers in Latvia. The Latvian Angel Project believes that the only way for these, or any, kids to understand the unconditional love of God through His son Jesus is to model this type of love for them.  So they pair each child in the children's home with a Christian sponsor.  

Could you, would you, consider sponsoring a child this Christmas season? For a one time donation of $30 you can bring hope and love to a child that otherwise would go without! It's super easy to sign up, I just did it and now a seven year old boy named Aleksis will KNOW that he's loved this holiday season. We'll write him letters and send him photos of our family and pets that he'll treasure! When Angie was in Latvia visiting the orphanages that the "Latvian Angel Project" works with, she found the kids had saved the photos and letters that their sponsors had sent to them. Some of the kids had years worth of photos that they'd been sent! Can you imagine? These photos are treasures to them because they know that they are not forgotten! They know that somewhere, someone is thinking about them and praying for them! Could you be an "angel" for a child this Christmas??

As a sponsor you simply agree to:

1.  Pray daily for your child for a year 
2.  Write a letter to your child (include photos of family & pets) and continue writing throughout the year.
3.  Make a one time donation (minimum $30 per child but more would be awesome) so we can purchase Christmas gifts for them.
4.  Pray earnestly about joining our mission team to go visit the children.
