Remembering the Mustard Seed – God shows us how something small and seemingly insignificant can grow into something significant and impactful!
Thats you Avi “Tin Tin”… from a tiny and unwanted orphan-to a much cherished princess and daughter-to the namesake of ministry programs where lives are being changed and impacted eternally
Mark 4:30-32 And He said, “How shall we picture the kingdom of God, or by what parable shall we present it? It is like a mustard seed, which, when sown upon the soil, though it is smaller than all the seeds that are upon the soil, yet when it is sown, it grows up and becomes larger than all the garden plants and forms large branches; so that the birds of the air can nest under its shade.”
Other verses where the mustard seed is mentioned :
- Matthew 17:20
- Luke 17:5-6
- Matthew 13:31-32
- Luke 13:18-19
Why does this matter when celebrating her birthday?
It matters because every night when I would hold this tiny fragile princess in my arms I would whisper in her ear how one day we will run through fields of yellow flowers together. And the flowers in my vision and dreams with her were just like the mustard seed flower!
Watch the video again and look to find 2 little girls lives whose lives are being impacted and changed by the life, legacy and love for and of Avi Tin Tin!
Please consider a gift in her honor today to Ting Ministries 29 East Poplar Street Lebanon PA 17042
within hours a family is being freed from slavery to celebrate her birthday 
And more Stay tuned…
We might be small in the world’s eyes but we serve a VERY BIG GOD!

The Gift of Friendship
Seems like an easy thing for many – to have a friend! Or maybe it’s a difficult thing for you or your children 
But I wanted to share…
I could write a long post and cry as I type…how blessed I was as a mother yesterday to see this beautiful friendship – one of sacrifice and service to my girls and finding joy in it!
Ellianna waved and blew kisses to her friends after dropping them off at home.
What is not visible in photos is the disability level of my girls which is perfectly fine but that’s why this day was so precious and perfect!
The picture I saw in my mind is a glimpse of how it’s supposed to be – the innocence of kids just having fun and enjoying the joy of friends no matter the ability level – finding joy in serving and laughter in simple friendship.
Living life with Ellianna is a glimpse into how to truly live life – trusting God in each moment and living that moment to the fullest.
Today is today and not tomorrow or yesterday so live today as it is and not as it was or will be!
God gave you today! Live it to it’s fullest! Live like Ellianna!
What’s your purpose?
Do you know Jesus as your Lord and Savior – not know of Him but really KNOW HIM?
Romans 10:9-10
If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by openly declaring your faith that you are saved.
A Little Meimei Now and Then
Everyone needs a little Meimei every now and then!
The youngest of the “Ting Girls” here in the USA!
Once an orphan – languishing in a crib – starving for love, food and attention – to thriving and enjoying the sun, pool, sisters and life!
This is James 1:27
This is the face of adoption!
Happy 22nd Birthday and 8 Years Home, Annie!
What a miracle!! For those who knew and ran with us 8 years ago – yesterday June 28th was not only Annie’s birthday but also the 8th Anniversary of her miracle adoption! It was only by the grace of God that we made it to her before she aged out at 14 years old in China!
Her adoption was an extreme expedite- 6 and 1/2 weeks from start to the day she became our daughter! We almost missed our flight due to sitting on a tarmac in D.C. for over 2 hours blowing through our planned layover time in LA! We rushed to our plane and were the last ones on the flight. Our luggage didn’t make it but we did! We adopted her 8 hours before her 14th birthday( at that time it was the cut off age for adoption in China).
To everyone who prayed and supported us 8 years ago…THANK YOU! GOD MADE A and E for one another! ANNIE AND ELLIANNA became sisters and best friends from the first moment they met when Brian picked us up at the airport in D.C. with Ellianna tagging along! They both have significant special needs and they compliment one another/ help one another and can communicate in their own language- one is deaf and the other struggles to use her hands due to cerebral palsy(making signing difficult) but they have their own language worked out and are a true gift to anyone who knows them. They are hilarious and keep life in the moment!
Thank you God for the miracle of Annie and Ellianna. We have been blessed and had Brian not said ” let’s try it – we can make it to her in China before she ages out” – she would be one of the many orphans who no one would see or bring into their home! She would be a statistic! May the Lord bring another into our lives and home- our hearts have room for another treasure to love! His faith was unwavering! We literally did China adoption everyday for 6 and 1/2 weeks and made 6 trips to NYC for Chinese documents! Praise the Lord and Thank you! Remembering and Praising And HAPPY Birthday to our rose!
