We've had several new followers on our blog, and wanted to share how you can help us bring our kids home. We are in the process of adopting 2 little boys from Eastern Europe. They have been separated and are living in 2 separate orphanages due to Liam's age. We are trying to rush this process along, so that we can bring the boys back together and give them a home!
We can't wait to have these kiddos in our arms! We are hoping that the adoption will be finalized and that they will be home by Christmas!
If you want to know more about us, please read the "Meet the Jepson" tab. Or if you want to see a breakdown on the cost of adoption please read the "Adoption Fees/Funding" tab. Or if you want to read more about our fund-raisers click on the "How to Help/Fund-Raisers" tab. Tons of information can be found on our blog -- and feel free to catch up on our journey by reading our previous posts!
There are several ways you can help (if you are so inclined):
1. Please send positive thoughts our way! We have tons of things still to do, lots of money to raise, save, or borrow, and we still have to travel to their country to meet them and bring them home!
2. You can donate by clicking on the PayPal icon to the right. This donation is tax deductible. You are donating to Reece's Rainbow -- and they turn around and give us 90% of the money back as a grant! This is the organization that is helping us to complete our independent adoption. They are awesome! If you have a calling to adopt, or would like to help others, please visit their website: http://reecesrainbow.org/
3. Order Scentsy! Cindy is holding a fund-raiser for us and donating all of her commission! Scentsy is wickless, leadless, flameless, and smokless electric candles that are heated by a low watt light bulb. The low watt bulbs are hot enough to melt the great-smelling Scentsy wax, but not hot enough to burn if spilled or touched. You can change the wax at anytime! They also have room fresheners, products for children, and amazing scents!
This party goes through 30 August and we are currently receiving 20% of all sales towards our adoption! All you have to do is go to https://cindysymons.scentsy.us/Homeand click on "Lura's fund-raiser" on the left side of the screen. Then order away! You get to enjoy great Scentsy products -- and we earn a little more towards our adoption!!!
If you are interested in ordering 220v warmers email me at robertandlura@gmail.com and we can get those ordered for you as well!
****Plus Scentsy is 10% off in the month of August!!!

Beautiful boys!
ReplyDeleteI will post a link to your blog tomorrow :)
Thank you! :) And I know! It's their eyes that get you every time! :) :) :) I hope you are having a fabulous weekend! :)
ReplyDeleteHi! I found you thru RR, and just read thru your entire blog.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!! I'm so excited for you and for Mikey & Liam!
Back in early June, I came across your boys info on RR and fell in love with them. I so wished we could bring them home to join our two boys, 8 & 3, but unfortunately, adoption is not an option for us right now, altho we hope to be able to in the future.
Since adoption isn't feasible, we began to pray earnestly & daily that our Creator and Lord would provide a family and a home for these brothers! You are a HUGE answer to our prayers!!! We are thrilled for you and for Mikey & Liam!!!
We'll be following along, and will make a donation or two as funds are available.
Blessings to you this week as you continue to make plans and arrange the details to bring these boys home! <3
