Earthquake Devastates St. Joseph Home in Port au Prince

Broken Wings is the Canadian fundraising organization whose primary mission is to support the vision and ministry of the St. Joseph Family in Haiti, which includes the St. Joseph’s Home for Boys in Port-au Prince, Wings of Hope in Fermathe, and Trinity House in Jacmel.

Orphans caring for orphans: a beautiful story

St. Joseph’s Home for Boys was Michael Geilenfeld’s dream that became a reality in 1985, bringing boys off the streets of Port-au-Prince to provide them with a Christian home and family.

When French missionaries announced they were leaving Haiti and needed to find care for the disabled children under their supervision, Michael took some of the older boys from St. Joseph's to choose a child to bring home and care for. But the boys surprised Michael when they chose to adopt all the children. Wings of Hope had become a thriving home for disabled children, recently rebuilt and expanded to include a day school for disabled community children and lovely guest facilities.

For more on the St. Joseph's family of homes for children, visit the Broken Wings website.

'truly tiny' mom planner by amelia maness-gilliland

The Truly Tiny Mom Planner from Truly Mom is the brand new, smaller sized planner. It is still refillable, and contains a weekly/monthly Sept. 2009 to Sept 2010 calendar with pocket, a sticky note pad, a note to pad, and a pen. Truly tiny can also be used without the calendar to hold your PDA. Just pull the calendar out and slip your PDA into the secure elastics and off you go. You'll have a stylish place to hold your PDA and the paper you need to keep your life running smoothly -- it's small enough to throw in your purse, but too cute to hide.
