First off we'd like to thank everyone for their input on this gift of life as someone called it. We have turned all the legal issues over to our lawyer, he would like to see us make a loan to someone at say 2% interest over 10 years instead of just giving it away. Which we have not totally decide against this idea so....

We have decide to start the process by asking everyone interested to write a essay telling about themselves all the whatfors whys and how comes, tell us anything you might think will help our decision and why we should pick you.

We also want you to know a little about us. Some have called us angels but really we're just normal people like you and yours. We have 3 children, 2 in college. We live in the Pacific Northwest in a small community. I am a stay at home mom and my husband drives truck, so you see we are not rich by any means, we just feel compelled to, as someone said, save a life.

The biggest reason I think we decided to do this, after great discussion with our children is I read a post on this site (by I think Full of grace) of her pastor being in a fatal car crash due to the seat belt not fitting, I cried for hours after reading this and I asked myself what can I do to help a family not have to go thru this kind of tragedy. That's when I came up with this idea.

So get your fingers going and drop a us a pm. The person we pick will be notified by on DEC 25th.

We will keep posting to let you all know how its going. There will be a deadline date of DEC 15th, 2006

God Bless all. Amom & Adad

:) Many have asked where to send your essay. Our email is faithwalkers4u@potc.net. There is still plenty of time to get yours in so don't delay. Tell us about yourself, your situation. Let us know if you'd like a loan, gift or even just a bit to help pay off the remainder of your costs. We would like to help as many as possible.

God bless

The power that "a mom" and "a dad" can have. Bless you for being financially able, and also for choosing, to save a life in this way. Good luck to you and your chosen recipient.
