Still looking for a unique setting in which to keep the Feast Of Tabernacles? 
Space is available on the island of Saaremaa, Estonia.
 

This year the currency exchange between the US Dollar and the Estonian Kroon are the best they've been in years.  Your cost will be surprisingly
attractive.  All services will be conducted in English and will be held in the luxurious George Ots Spa located in a park-like setting overlooking the
Baltic Sea. A double room at the spa costs a reasonable $75 per night which includes a buffet breakfast and use of all pools and spas. A group
lunch will be held each day. Saaremaa can be reached by bus/ferry or a short flight costing approximately $40 one way from Estonia's capital
city Tallinn. Restaurants, shops, and other sites are within walking distance.  If a taxi is needed, prices are very reasonable. Come and join brethren
from six nations for a memorable and enjoyable Feast of Tabernacles.

For more information, contact fotestonia@gmail.com and call Johnnie Lambert at 607 796-2660.

Kids for Cows!  LifeNets started providing cattle for Zambians in 2001. There has always been a strong link between children and the cows. Children in the poorest of all countries are the biggest beneficiaries of the cattle.  Cows provide milk, a much-needed and lacking part of their diet.

We are now expanding the model for our Zambian cattle program to Kenya and Zimbabwe.  We need your help in stocking the original heifers and bulls  MORE

We reached our $12000 goal on Sunday, May 16th!  A heartfelt THANK YOU to all of you for helping Naomi!!! 

New LifeNets initiative for a child.

OUR FUND IS 100% of our GOAL on May 16, 2010!!

Shortly after birth Naomi developed Athetoid Cerebral Palsy due to severe  jaundice, resulting in damage to her basal ganglia located in the mid-brain.  She is presently three years old and after many different therapies she can now hold her head up for most of the time, sometimes roll over, and more effectively cough and swallow.


I met Naomi at Cincinnati in May 1, 2010.  A really sweet little girl!

One of the therapies she is using, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), helps those with Cerebral Palsy by bringing extra oxygen to damaged brain cells.  If this treatment is started early and is done frequently, these dormant cells can begin to function and this contributes to significantly improved CP symptoms.


The weak can never forgive.... forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.                           - Gandhi
