February 28, 2008 Dear Family and Friends, Time is flying by; Our Journey is really keeping me busy. We continue to do many PowerPoint Presentations at churches, civic organizations and women's groups, wherever we are asked. Our Journey is committed to raising a considerable amount of $$$ to continue all our on going projects in South Africa. To quote Fred, our board member and CPA, "Our Journey's only limitation is the money we can raise". We have had a lot of publicity lately, a magazine cover story and two newspapers articles, all in one month. Praise God! Links to the articles: Florida Times Union "Mama Maureen Takes Her Passion to South Africa" The Georgia Magazine "Our Journey to Africa" - To open up this wonderful article, click on this link and then under the picture of Maureen and children, click on the title, enter the access code "journey" and then click on "go." The Harbor Sound "The Forgotten Children in the Valley of a Thousand Hills" Update on some of the great things people are doing to help support Our Journey: Ellen Moriarty, a St. Simons Island artist and a great supporter of Our Journey, has again donated a piece of art that she specifically painted for us. The opportunity to purchase tickets for the framed oil painting of "Hunters Café at Shellman Buff" will be offered at the parking lot for the St. Patrick's Day celebration in Shellman Bluff on Saturday, March 15. Tickets will be available for a $5.00 donation, with all proceeds going to Our Journey. They will remain on sale until May 17 . Please contact Barbara Perkins at (912)-832-7038 or e-mail her at perkie@darientel.net if you would like to purchase tickets or sell tickets for us. The winner will be announced at Hunter's Café on Saturday, May 17. You do not need to be present to win.
Three groups have already started sewing quilts for the children in South Africa. Sandra Magsamen's company "Messages From The Heart" has created this project and is sponsoring the material and the postage to mail the quilts to Our Journey in South Africa
