Girls Meet With Pam Cope!

On Thursday night, the girls had the honor of meeting with Pam Cope. Pam is the woman who was on Oprah's show. She is the woman who decided to take action after reading the NY TIMES article on Mark and the horror occuring in Ghana. It was watching Pam and hearing her story that inspired the girls to do something.

Pam shared her experiences with the girls and what amazing stories she shared. The girls were fascinated by her and Pam answered each of their questions while giving them invaluable advice. Pam and her husband are incredible human beings. They have devoted their lives to saving one child at a time. Sound familiar?

You will soon be able to read about Pam and her life's journey. Her story will be in book stores by next year. Keep checking the website for more information of when her book will be available. You will be forever changed after reading her story.

There was something that Pam shared that touched everyone that night. The story went something like this: There was a person who saw a crowd of people, one very cold day, gathering around something in the street. When this person went closer to the crowd, he noticed that the crowd had gathered around a street child who had frozen to death. How could this be? How could so many people pass this child each day and not do anything to help him? All that child needed was one person to help him. It has been said that every suffering child has been "assigned" someone, by God, to save them. The person "assigned" to this child failed.

When an opportunity to help save a child is upon you, do something. You may be saving the child that has been "assigned" to you.
