What an example!

I would not say I am a blog 'stalker' but I do enjoy reading about other people and the joys and trials they go through. I find so many people that encourage me to try something new or maybe take a new perspective of something. 

My Pastor, Tony Merida, has a sister I wish I knew. He talks of her often and she is indeed an inspiration. I was so glad Saturday when I randomly found her blog! I was so delighted to know she is a blogger! 

What little I know of her story is...she and her husband have adopted 4 children from overseas and are in the process of adopting two more. They just brought the youngest, Mercy, home. She is HIV positive. She had such a heart for orphans. Not only are they bringing children home but they are 'training them up in the way they should go." The boys are reading things like Grudem's Systematic Theology and loving it. You must check her out! I think I may ask if she will do a blog interview and post it...how cool would that be! She also has wonderful links to African adoptions. Visit her here!

Do you know a cool blogging family that inspires? Leave a comment...
