Hey, I'm on a roll!!

I have been busy...for the last hour and 1/2 I've been getting all the information together on what I need to do regarding launching The Common Bond as a non-profit organization. What I keep seeing that is reiterated is to come up with a Mission Statement.

This is what I've got so far...please please please...leave comments, email me, call me...if you have any ideas on how I should change this...first I guess I should tell you what I have nailed down as the basis for this foundation...

My vision is to see moms helping other moms walk together thru the toughest trials we may endure. First and foremost, I want a place that a mother can come and connect with another mom...to talk with, to listen to, to pray with...they will know there's someone caring for them.

Second we will send a Faith, Hope and Love bracelet...because I believe something as small as simple bracelet can be a source of tangible comfort and encouragment as she faces the unknown.

Third, this is the big part, we will provide financial assistance to families who have children hospitalized due to a terminal illness...we will also provide financial assistance to mothers who are placed on bed rest due to high risk pregnancies.

Okay...with all of that said, here's what I've got for the mission statement:


To show the love of Christ through a common bond we share as mothers by providing encouragement, hope and assistance while walking with them on the road they face.

Again...please help me with this...I'm stumped on if I should add, change all together, delete...etc. Please rearrange it in any way you see fit and you can post comments or send me an email common-bond@hotmail.com
