A Christmas Gift for Shoshannah's Sisters

In honor of Annalee, Ava Brackett, Ava Bogen, Gracie, Anna Grace and Marie we made a donation today to World Vision. Since most of our girls came home with Giardia we know how important clean water is. So here is the gift..

Water sources at Angolan and Kenyan schools are often contaminated, causing frequent diarrheal infections that keep children out of class and can endanger their lives. Your gift will deliver enough water treatment tablets to provide safe drinking water for up to 250 children for one year.

May God bless each of you in a special way this Christmas Season.

With love,
The Bacon Family
