All Are Precious In His Sight: 3rd Annual Boss Your Heart Birthday Benefit

We have a fabulous giveaway at the end of this post, along with some exciting announcements! Be sure to read the photo captions to get the full story!

Last year (2012), we hosted an online birthday party, in memory of Chrissie’s 7th birthday, benefitting Village of Hope in Guatemala. In 2011, we hosted a team roping benefit at our ranch, in memory of Chrissie's 6th birthday, benefitting adoptive families.

This year, we’re SO EXCITED to host our 2nd annual online birthday party, in memory of Chrissie’s 8th birthday, benefitting BYHOME (Boss Your Heart Orphan Ministries Experience), our newest mission.

BYHOME is a one-of-a-kind mission, in memory of a one-of-a-kind girl! BYHOME is a mission to reach countless orphans worldwide by hosting other families/groups in the “barnonminium” on our ranch, where they will EXPERIENCE first-hand countless ways God can use them to make a difference in the lives of orphans.

Are you a post-adoptive family in need of help? BYHOME is perfect for you!
Are you in the process of adopting and want some guidance and/or help preparing for what life will be like once your child gets home? BYHOME is perfect for you, too!
Are you considering adoption and want to learn more about the ins and outs of domestic adoption, international adoption, adoption of children with special needs, adopting out of birth order, adopting at-risk children, etc.? BYHOME is perfect for you as well!
Are you looking for a domestic mission trip experience that will change your heart? BYHOME is perfect for this!
Are you looking for a place to be encouraged, equipped, educated, and inspired to do more for orphans? BYHOME is the perfect opportunity!
Are you clueless about adoption and orphan care? Guess what? BYHOME is also perfect for you!

To get our new mission launched (hopefully on Chrissie’s birthday, October 8), we need your help! We have the perfect set-up, a “barnominium” (1,000 square foot guest apartment above our barn), where we plan to host groups/families on our ranch where they'll EXPERIENCE first-hand how to boss their hearts as they serve alongside our family, learning about children with special needs, therapies, domestic adoption, international adoption, global orphan care, educating former orphans, helping post-adoptive families, and so much more! This is for all ages and stages of life. We will minister to post-adoptive families, families in the process of adopting, families considering adopting, and guests who may or may not have a clue about orphan care, but have hands and feet willing to serve as well as hearts and minds willing to learn. :-)

After a BYHOME stay, guests will leave with changed hearts, believing and knowing undoubtedly that ALL are precious in His Sight! Guests will leave educated, encouraged, equipped, and inspired to care for orphans in whatever way the Lord has called them, whether it’s through adoption or through one of the many other ways of living out James 1:27.

BYHOME is a much-needed ministry, the only one of its kind, and we already have guests on our waiting list! In order to launch this, we need to furnish the barnominium, and you can help us, in memory of Chrissie’s 8th birthday! The barnominium will sleep 12 people in comfy beds, plus more can bring sleeping bags if desired.

You’re also invited to attend (in real life!) the BYHOME Open House at our ranch on Chrissie's birthday, October 8. While Chrissie celebrates her 8th birthday in heaven, we'll celebrate her life and legacy here on earth. For those unable to attend in person, we’ll host a virtual tour of the BYHOME barnominium right here on our blog October 8 where the big reveal of the interior you help furnish will occur!

We have many ways you can help us to celebrate Chrissie’s life and legacy. Please prayerfully consider a sponsorship of BYHOME (donations are tax-deductible) and also consider purchasing an item for BYHOME from our Amazon wish list via the link below.
