These are strange times. Our kids keep saying, “I can’t believe we’re living in the time of a global pandemic."
Neither can we. We’ve pondered the significance of so many things during this time. We’re holding on to our families a little tighter, (except for when we’re arguing with them.) Life somehow feels more precious doesn’t it?
Friends, we think about you daily and we pray for you. We want you to know we are grateful for you. We know things are challenging on many fronts, and we’re thankful for your faithful prayers and continued support. It means the world to us to be able to work at Oasis and help the children and communities around us during these difficult times.
We need your help!!!
Over the years, Oasis has taken major steps forward through small gifts. Water, shoes, books, and other initiatives have been provided by casting a wide net and asking for a little help.
The Global 5k for Orphans is approaching. It’s an annual event Oasis is hosting to cast a wide net in addressing the worldwide orphan crisis. Oasis is fighting the issue directly in Kenya, but, the problem is everywhere.
The Global 5K for Orphans is a ‘race’ in the sense that there’s a sign up, a t-shirt, and a date we ‘run’ together. But there’s no need to run if that is not your style. You can virtually run it. You can walk it. You can sleep it.
What’s important is your engagement!
Join Team RANN in the Global 5K for Orphans!
This year, Oasis is forming Global 5K teams, and we want our team to win.
We have created Team RANN - Team Rick & Ann. We are placing our confidence in you not only joining us, but in getting 10 other family & friend groups to join us.
The young, hipster Global 5K teams think their teams will win through social media connections. We think we’ll win through personal connections. Help us make that happen!
