Thanks to Jeanne Eisele for sharing pictures of Peter Karanja & Leah Wandera's wedding in Omaha, Nebraska. Jeanne was able to attend and said it was an amazing ceremony with lots of energy and fun at the reception. If you look closely at the wedding photo, you'll recognize some familiar faces. Many blessings to the happy couple!

CAN YOU HELP OUR FRIENDS AT FAMILY PROMISE?
Diaper Shortage! The day center is running critically low on diapers. We especially need newborn and sizes 1 & 2 for some new babies in our programs, in addition to larger sizes as well. If you would like to donate a package of diapers, please contact Nora Godown at n.godown@familypromisemorris.org.
We are in need of new air conditioner units for families to keep cool this summer. A new window A/C unit provides much relief for an entire family and helps to prevent heat-related ailments. If you would like to donate a unit or funds for one, please contact Nora Godown at n.godown@familypromisemorris.org.

Congratulations to Woo Lim Kwak and Ha Young Yang

on their engagement!
