Aviguel
Submitted by Brynn on Tue, 03/03/2009 - 20:04.Most of you probably don't know who Aviguel is, where she lives, or how I know her.
Aviguel is my sponsored child. But I don't think of her as someone that lives "across the globe" who needs my help. When I think of Avi I think of a friend in need, a good friend that I care for that I've realized could probably use some of my prayer, time and care.
I've been babysitting a lot for our neighbors recently, occasionally for some other little ones, and helping out with chores around our house. Everywhere I go I hear about the problems of the world, and what "you" can do to help. I always thought it'd be fun to have a pen pal. After thinking about it for a while, I decided that I had what it takes to become a sponsor. And really, it's not all that much. Paying $32 a month, praying and writing letters every so often, is all it takes to be a child's sponsor. (Actually, my parents pay for half of Avi's monthly fees.)
I always look forward to hearing from her, and having the chance to write her back. And though it takes a little extra work to make sure that I get my $16 payed off each month, it is sooo worth it. I get the joy of knowing that I'm helping someone, while I get the chance to meet a new BFF- (really, you sponsor them 'till their at least 18.)
I used to want to see how much money I could earn for myself, how many video games I could get. All the normal stuff. Now, my goal in life has changed; I really hope that someday, I will get the chance to meet Aviguel in her own home, and that I get to tell her how much I love her, and God loves her, in person.
Girl Scout Badge Work
Submitted by Brynn on Mon, 01/29/2007 - 21:58.I had so much fun working on this project with my family. I am working on a Girl Scounts badge called "Camera Shots" and one of the activities to do is to make a video. Mommy and I worked together to make up a script. The writing and the filming took about two hours. Then, I worked another hard hour on editing with Daddy using iMovie.
I hope you enjoy my first video. (click the blue words)
Let me know what you think by leaving lots of comments so it will make Mommy jealous. 8^ )
PS. Look for my cameo appearance.
PPS. Some parts are quiet so you might want to turn up the sound a bit. And sorry about all the noisy wind.
