Every year on my birthday, when asked to make a wish, I would close my eyes and secretly hope to be adopted into a family. I saw some of my friends get adopted during the 11 years I spent in the orphanage, but I didn’t think that wish would ever come true for me because most people would only adopt 1 or 2 children – not 3. When I was 15 years old, however, I was so surprised when told that my brother and sister and I were going to be adopted by a family in America. We were very excited.

Since being adopted, I have learned about Jesus and the sacrifice He made for me. My favorite verse has become Jeremiah 29:11 because it describes the hope I now have of a future with Him. All of the proceeds from these bracelets I make and sell will go to orphans (either to be used for family friends' adoption fees, mission trips specific to orphans, or sent directly to orphanages). I would love for God to use me in giving other orphans a hope and a future.

Thank you for visiting my site and checking out the bracelets. If you would like to order one, just email me at pavlinarowe@gmail.com and let me know which one you would like. Each bracelet set costs $10 and I can mail it to you for an additional $2.

My trip to Honduras

I would like to tell you about my recent trip to Honduras with Sparrow Ministries. During the week long trip, our group visited many different places where we served and talked with people about Jesus.  My favorite place of all was the girls' orphanage. There are about 60 girls who live there.  It was awesome because I got to tell my story about when I was in the orphanage. I told them that I know how they feel because I've been there. I shared that when I was in the orphanage in Ukraine, I always wanted a family. When I was 15 years old, a family came to adopt us from the USA. We were happy. I told them about the hope I had to have a family. They might never have a family but they can have hope with God because he would not leave them. He loves them as much as He loves me and everyone else. I told them my favorite Bible verse. "For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord; plans not to harm you but to give you a hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11. He has given me even more than I would ever imagine. We left the beads for the girls there to make salvation bracelets. They were very happy because they don't get to do things like that often. God blessed me on this trip and showed things I've never seen. I praise God!
