Our second donation from the memorial fund

There are many causes out there that are worthy of people's donations. We continue to look for ways that we can connect a donation from the memorial fund with Lexi's life. And we want God's love to be known in the process.

Our friends, Mo and Rebekah Padilla, adopted two children from Ghana in 2009. I remember that Lexi had just gotten out of a two-and-a-half week stay in the hospital when we got to celebrate the arrival and adoption of the Padilla's two children from Ghana. Recently, we heard from Rebekah about a project that was taking place to bring a water line to the orphanage and village in Ghana that they adopted from. The current water well they have now is very contaminated and is infecting children with deadly parasites.

We were honored to be able to donate money from Lexi's memorial fund to the water project. It was a neat way for Lexi to be connected to their two children from Ghana and for us to help children become healthy. Lexi spent much of her time battling seizures, visiting doctors, taking medications, staying in hospitals, etc. But, we are so thankful that we could do our best to keep her as healthy as possible and provide her with lots of care. We know how important it is for children to be healthy and we are excited to see how Lexi's life can continue to help other children be healthy.
