<div><strong>Help the Godwins—A Family Who's Spent Their Lives Helping Others</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>“Whatever you did for the least of these . . . you did for me.” — Matthew 25:40
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The Godwins have spent their lives living out this verse—adopting five children with special needs, and helping place hundreds of orphans from around the world into loving homes.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now, they’re the ones in need.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Greg and Kristie Godwin are the parents of nine children, five of whom are adopted internationally and have special needs. For years, Greg helped run The Shepherd’s Crook, a nonprofit orphan ministry that placed disabled children from around the world into forever families. The ministry shut down most of its operations recently; consequently, Greg lost his job.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>He’s spent months searching and applying—but doors haven’t opened. <em>And just this week, his final unemployment appeal was denied</em>. The family now faces an urgent financial crisis—with no income, and nine children depending on them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Their life has been one of extraordinary compassion, radical obedience, and quiet sacrifice. But they’re not ones to quickly ask for help. So we’re asking on their behalf.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>How You Can Help:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Pray: </strong>Ask the Lord to open a door for meaningful, stable work. (<em>And if you have any way to help Greg network in seeking employment, </em><a href="https://1drv.ms/w/c/2c90277545f949aa/EcX_KiFB4tBKpl-zNUoSQcEBvQulRi6D4zovauAR96Zscg?e=xNFdhs" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><em>here is his resumé</em></a><em> you can take a look at.</em>)
</div>
<div><strong>Give:</strong> Any amount helps with groceries, bills, and basic needs (their budget for a family of 11 is $5,000 in monthly expenses).
</div>
<div><strong>Share:</strong> Spread this campaign far and wide. The more who hear, the more who can help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This family has opened their home—and their hearts—to the most vulnerable. <em>Let’s open ours to them now.</em>
</div>
