2 The Least

I have been helping some friends with a non-profit they are trying to get going. The heart of the organization to help "the least of these," through orphan care/adoption. If you want to know more about the organization you should check out their blog at 2theleast.blogspot.com.

You can purchase a set of cards with one of the images being this one. I was inspired a by a picture of a little girl in Uganda that a friend took.

You can make a donation to 2theleast.org and receive an e-mail with one of the 3 images below on a gift tag for you to gift to someone for Christmas. The gift tag will say, "however much money, was given in your honor to orphans in Uganda, a domestic adoption or to living water." We are doing this to provide alternate gifts to support Advent Conspiracy.
This piece is about adoption. I used newspaper on the background of the painting. I also cut out certain scriptures from the Bible and pasted them on the canvas. You will receive this image on a gift tag if you donate to a domestic adoption.
Adoption
This piece is about orphans. My husband helped me come up with this idea. The painting is of the same boy. The one on the left is how people often see orphans. The image on the right is how God sees orphans. He sees all of us as princes and princess. We are children of the King, orphans, middle class, rich, or poor. We are equally loved and adored by our creator. You will receive a gift tag with this image if you donate to orphan care in Uganda.

In the Eyes of the King
This piece is about water. From left to right the water starts out dirty and then becomes clean which then clean water gives life. God is our living water, when He comes into our lives He washes us clean. You will receive this image on a gift tag if you donate to Living Water.
