Dear Friends and Family Members,
We are excited to announce that we will be returning to Liberia, March 10th, for a one year commitment under Hope for Home Ministries. Hope for Home Ministries' purpose to educate people on the needs of orphans, challenge families to adopt and inspire them to become involved in ministry to orphans. In Guatemala, Hope for Home Ministries is caring for special needs children through their group home, sponsorship program, and maternity care program. This year, Hope for Home is expanding their ministries into Uganda and Liberia.

| Daryl working in the villages |
Hope for Home’s director, Daryl Fulp and I have been close friends and prayer partners since 2000. It was through Daryl’s ministry that we adopted our son, Don. God used Daryl, to make us aware of the orphan crisis that exists in the world and to open our eyes to the responsibility and privilege of caring for the needs of orphans and those who are destitute.

| Children in Gbarnga who were effected by Ebola |
Last year, we lived in an area that was once the epicenter of ebola. Throughout the year, we felt our hearts being drawn more and more toward the needs of ebola orphans and destitute children. We believe partnering with Hope for Home Ministries will enable us to better serve these children because orphan ministry is their area of expertise.
Due to our new ministry focus your donations will need to be redirected to Hope for Home Ministry. Hope for Home will now be taking over the care of your sponsored children. Please make your donations payable to Hope for Home Ministries and write, "Sponsorship - Child's Name, Liberia” on your memo line. For any other donations, simply include the word “Liberia” on the memo line. Donations should be mailed to Hope for Home Ministries, P.O. Box 393 Troy, OH 45373. Wordsower will temporarily transfer all of our sponsor’s donations to Hope for Home Ministries until everyone is accustomed to sending their donations to this new address.
You can familiarize yourself with Hope by Home Ministries by reading and subscribing to Daryl’s blog at hopeforhome.blogspot.com. You can also visit Hope for Home’s webpage as it is being redesigned to include Liberia at hopeforhome.org.
Please remember our family in your prayers as we move back to Liberia under Hope for Home Ministries. Thank you for your love and sacrifices for the Liberian people. We look forward to another year of serving Christ alongside of you.
The Riley Family
