We are sharing this information to ask for your spiritual support\u00a0and if you feel led, for your\u00a0financial support. The first of the trips will be in April to Haiti with the Atlanta Church Group to visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.haitiecovillageschool.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Eco-Village School Project<\/a> in the central plateau region of Haiti. The second will be this August with <a href=\"http:\/\/hope4nic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hope for Nicaragua<\/a> with the Baptist Medical and Dental\u00a0International, this is a combined evangelical and medical mission.\u00a0\u00a0Each trip\u00a0is a week in duration. To learn more about these mission groups please follow the links in the article or drop either of us a note.<\/p>\n<p>Quilting for a cause, Loida has made this beautiful quilt, seen below.\u00a0Each square was hand cut, then sewn together in this artful pattern. The front and back\u00a0were quilted together with quality cotton quilting material and a 80\/20 cotton polyester batting,\u00a0resulting in a quilt that is warm and decorative.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than simply asking for your support,\u00a0we would like to offer\u00a0you a chance to win this beautiful quilt in return. We are having a raffle to give it away. A ticket will be $10 or 3 tickets for $25. Each ticket provides you with a chance to own this beautiful quilt.<\/p>\n<p>The first image, on the top or left,\u00a0is of the front side of the quilt. It is about 65&#8243; by 75&#8243;. It is intended as a throw or large lap quilt that will also fit a twin\u00a0size bed. The\u00a0second image is the back \u00a0side of the quilt with a bright red back ground color. The quilt is very colorful and machine quilted in a nice repeating \u00a0pattern.<\/p>\n<p>We thank you\u00a0 for your consideration and your prayers\u00a0for us as we\u00a0prepare for these mission trips.<\/p>\n<p><em>Loida and Michael\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"300\" cellspacing=\"2\" cellpadding=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">\n<form action=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr\" method=\"post\" target=\"_top\"><input name=\"cmd\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"_s-xclick\" \/> <input name=\"hosted_button_id\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"ZWHBQSQVVP47C\" \/><br \/>\n<input alt=\"PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!\" name=\"submit\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/btn\/btn_donate_LG.gif\" type=\"image\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/scr\/pixel.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/form>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>$10.00<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In return for your support we will enter your name in the drawing for the quilt.<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">\n<form action=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr\" method=\"post\" target=\"_top\"><input name=\"hosted_button_id\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"KG4AGE8QL9EXE\" \/><br \/>\n<input alt=\"PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!\" name=\"submit\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/btn\/btn_donate_LG.gif\" type=\"image\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/scr\/pixel.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/form>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>$25.00<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In return for your support we will enter your name in the drawing for the quilt three times.<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">\n<form action=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr\" method=\"post\" target=\"_top\"><input name=\"cmd\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"_s-xclick\" \/> <input name=\"hosted_button_id\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"SXVSPWH2ARD9L\" \/><br \/>\n<input alt=\"PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!\" name=\"submit\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/btn\/btn_donate_LG.gif\" type=\"image\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/scr\/pixel.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/form>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Any<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> Amount<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In return for your support we will enter your name once for each $10,\u00a0in the drawing for the quilt.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/20170228_155507.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-224 size-large alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/20170228_155507-893x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Front of the Quilt\" width=\"600\" height=\"688\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/20170228_155507-893x1024.jpg 893w, https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/20170228_155507-262x300.jpg 262w, https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/20170228_155507-768x880.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/20170228_155507.jpg 1954w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-225 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/20170228_155706-771x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Back of the Quilt\" width=\"600\" height=\"797\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/20170228_155706-771x1024.jpg 771w, https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/20170228_155706-226x300.jpg 226w, https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/20170228_155706-768x1020.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/20170228_155706.jpg 1111w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><br \/>\nClose up of the pattern and quilting on the front.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/wp-image-1792857605jpg.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-223 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/wp-image-1792857605jpg-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Quit detail\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/wp-image-1792857605jpg-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/wp-image-1792857605jpg-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/thurmond.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/wp-image-1792857605jpg.jpg 1494w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Seeds of Hope &#8212;
