World Mandate - Let's Build a Home!!! (Part 2)

GOD did it!!!
The 300 cards created, sold out - meaning one more home will be built!
AND more cards will have to be ordered!!!
Here is the card Isabelle "exclusively" designed for World Mandate!

World Mandate is a yearly conference held in Waco, TX. www.worldmandate.com
During this 3 day event, you are challenged to see the mandate that God has for each of us to reach the world with the message of Jesus love.
This year, the created a hands one experience called IMPACT NOW featuring 8 ministries that are reaching the world for Jesus and having significant impact.

We were blessed to represent Isabelle's Global Orphan Project
www.theglobalorphanproject.org


Our family standing together in front of the house World Mandate built at IMPACT NOW for Isabelle's to share her story & sell her cards.

Inside the home, people could use sharpies to draw their own picture, trace their hand, etc. to show their support of how we can all do something to make an impact! Here are just a few:


Isabelle has been blessed to meet & make great friends who love Jesus and want to make an impact as well...this is one of her great friends, Annalea!!
During the Sunday morning session, Jimmy Seibert, Senior Pastor of Antioch Community Church (this is the church that puts on World Mandate) interviewed Isabelle about her work for orphans. We were so proud of her courage and the boldness that God gave her to speak in front of 5,500 people. Jimmy asked her to end her interview with a pray a prayer of blessing over the crowd that all would hear God's call on their life and respond.


Elijah
A boy who hears and responds...

This young 7 year old, came to IMPACT NOW to see Isabelle. We were just headed out & ran into him outside. He was holding $3 and said that God told him to give this to Isabelle. His smile was from ear to ear. His heart is bigger than his little frame. This one act may be one of the biggest blessing from the whole weekend because it sums up God's heart for each of us...

Elijah heard God and responded obediently with what he had!

Can you hear God? What is blocking you from hearing His still small voice?
Are you responding obediently? or do you look the other way and think it isn't your problem?

God's heart is for everyone of His children. He loves you as much as He loves every person on this planet. If you don't know the love God has for you, please let us know so we can pray for you & help you find a church home where you will be encouraged. If you have a relationship with Jesus, will you ask Him what He wants you to do and then...

LISTEN AND OBEY!

Hi Isabelle! I didn't know where to get in touch with you so i hope you see this! I'm doing a speech on your Orphanages for my speech class and i was curious if i could get some information? How many homes you have? where they are? Some details of how you started that type thing. I've seen information everywhere but i want to make sure i get the facts correct =) I attended World Mandate this year and like so many others was very excited to see the work God is doing through you! I hope to hear from you. My name is Emily and my email address is simplyemily18@aol.com

Why I Love Orphans

Hi everyone and Happy New Year!!! I feel this year will be full of promise and God's blessings.  Lately, I have been thinking about the true reason behind why I help orphans.  My work for Him comes from three main principles:  1.  Wait for HIS timing. Waiting on Him requires patience, it's not always easy, but who said following God and having patience would be easy? 2.  TRUST His plan for me. Trusting in Him is the basics of faith!  When you trust Him, you are showing Him you believe in and want His plan for your life. 3.  I couldn't let a problem go UNANSWERED.  After hearing about orphans and the daily struggles in their lives, I couldn't just stand back and watch.  I wanted to do something more.  Helping orphans, I believe is what God is asking me to do, now and in my future life.  These children mean to much to me, as a teenager I know what it means to have a good home, a warm bed and nice clothes. They don't have that ...

World Mandate 2012

"Worship God, Change the World!"  World Mandate 2012 Waco, TX 5,000 people, awesome worship, amazing speakers, rich times of prayer, hilarious laughter, and IMPACT NOW - a creative place to engage and do something to CHANGE THE WORLD! We love the vision, the heart, the passion behind World Mandate - it's a place to catch vision, to be inspired, and to be moved into action for God's purposes in the world. In September 2011, Isabelle designed a WM exclusive card in order to raise funds to build a home in Rukore Village, Uganda.  She sold out of the 300 boxes and we had to take orders for more.  The home was built in March 2012 and the children have moved in!  This completed her 9th home!! This year for WM, Isabelle designed a new card based on photos she'd seen of the home in Rukore, Uganda.  We took 400 boxes - that's 4000 cards to sell with all of the proceeds going to the life care costs for the children living in that home for 3 years. ...
