Let Me Count The Ways ...

Encouragement and Sadness

This week's most encouraging moment: a birthmother finally feeling the excitement of the gift she is about to give to a family

This week's painful moment: a young mother calling for help, pregnant and living out of her car.

The calls are daily. Daily. Will you help?

Birthday Wishes
Happy Birthday this week to our favorite Client Services Director, GLENDA KYLE!! 29 again! ;-)

	Spare Bedroom?
We are in need of a bedroom in Austin for approximately 45 days for one of our birthmothers. She will soon be delivering and walking thru the painful grief that is involved. Although she is set in where she is going to be living, she would like to be able to be close to the BOL staff for the most intense part of the grieving period directly following birth and placement. Can you help?

THE NEXT TWO WEEKS ARE IMPORTANT!!

Trike 'N Bike: You can either join us this coming Saturday morning, July 31, at 9 a.m. with your Big Wheel and helmet in hand, OR volunteer to help us recruit kids and attend the event to help.

WE ARE HAVING AN EXTREMELY IMPORTANT one hour volunteer meeting TOMORROW, Tuesday, July 27, at 6 p.m. at the BOL office. PLEASE COME HELP! We will also use this meeting time to make sure everything's in place for next week's Aug 6 Rockathon for high school aged kids. CAN YOU HELP??

Both of these events help us keep our office doors open to continue providing help and support to the precious women that call seeking resources. It's an awesome way to walk out our belief that life is precious.

Check out the Trike 'N Bike page on the left hand side of our website to download forms and for more information!

GIVING OPPORTUNITIES:

*Be a donor for the Trike 'N Bike or Rockathon as kids complete each lap, or hour of rocking to help BOL

*Offer a room to a hurting, courageous birthmother

*Have you or your business sponsor the cost (about $100) of the t-shirts for each of the fundraising events and we'll include your business name. That's cheap advertising!!

*We are busy putting together a mailing design that will be sent to all of Austin and surrounding communities that will remind or let people know that Breath Of Life is here to help. Currently, THERE IS NO MATERNITY HOME in Travis County, and NONE in Texas that help a woman over the age of 24. We are currently seeking the funds to create and distribute this mailing, which will, in turn, create more awareness of both the need in our area and the many ways in which one can help. Please designate any checks or donations towards this goal as such in the memo portion of your check. We are honestly so excited to see the response and to continue to build our support base as we continue to serve Him by loving these women and their tiny ones.

In His Leading, pregnant girl
