Footprints in the Fairways 2010
by Footprints Ministry, Inc. on 

     "Store your treasures in Heaven" Matthew 6:20

The 3rd Annual Footprints in the Fairways was held on July 31st  at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Course in Prattville . It was an absolutely perfect day for golf! We had over 100 golfers participate in this year’s golf tournament. We always get super excited during the golf tournament to see all the great men and women that support our ministry!

 

As we drove across the course it was so neat to see the incredible businesses that support Footprints! Please support these companies with your business. Over the years we have been so blessed with the donations from these fine companies.  We also took time to reflect on the In Memory and In Honor tee signs. It gave us chill bumps to see these signs.  We know that there were many Footprints babies looking down from Heaven on that golf course with smiles!

 

This year we raised over $12,000 for the Footprints Ministry through the golf tournament! We will be able to provide over 600 Footprints bags to NICU families! We are so thankful for all of our sponsors, golfers, and volunteers that made the 3rd Annual Footprints in the Fairways a huge success! 

 

Be on the look -out for information on the tournament for next year. We will be adding an exciting element to our tournament that will allow NICU families and babies and Footprints supporters to be involved.

Thank you for storing your treasures in Heaven and supporting us as we share the love of Christ in the NICU!

Happy 2nd Birthday Raley!
by Footprints Ministry, Inc. on 

It's so hard to believe that our sweet Footprints baby Raley is already 2 years old! Raley was born on July 11, 2008 weighing only 2lbs and 4oz and just 14 inches long. She stayed in the NICU for 3 long months! You can read more about her long NICU journey HERE.

 

It is absolutely amazing to see the pictures of her in the NICU and the pictures of this precious miracle today! For her birthday party in lieu of gifts the parents asked for gift cards to be bought for Footprints. This was such a special way to remember her birthday! So many families will be touched by these gift cards!

 

Thank you to the Parkman family for allowing us to be a part of your NICU journey and Raley's 2nd Birthday! We are so grateful for your family!

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RALEY! WE LOVE YOU!

The Greatest Christmas Gift of All!
by Footprints Ministry, Inc. on 

Christmas time for alot of people is a time of rushing around to see family and buying and exchanging Christmas gifts. But there is one place in town where everything is standing still, no one is worrying about their Christmas shopping or making plans for Christmas day other than their plans to sit at their baby's bedside in the NICU.

 

Santa made a special appearance at Baptist South NICU on December 23rd. What an incredible visit it was! Santa arrived to take pictures with all of his little elves in the NICU and he delivered my 1st Christmas stockings to each of them. He also prayed over each of these precious children and asked for healing and hope for each of these families. The smiles on the NICU family's faces were priceless.

 

We met one mother who had not received a Footprints bag yet. We explained to her what all they contained. She asked "it has a Bible?" We said "yes it has a Bible" She followed with "wow, I've never owned my own Bible".  We ran down the hall to grab her a Footprints bag and gave it to her. She was so thankful for the bag but especially for the Bible. Wow, what a powerful thing to know that Footprints provided a mother with her very 1st Bible! Thank you Lord for allowing us to minister to her! We pray that a seed has been planted and her life will begin to be transformed.

 

What a reminder of what Christmas is all about! It's not about the hustle and bustle but the birth of our Savior! Below are some pictures from our Christmas visit. Thank you for supporting Footprints so we can continue spreading the love of Christ!

All Glory to God!
by Footprints Ministry, Inc. on 

We had an amazing golf tournament in August! We had many golfers, volunteers and sponsors that helped make this tournament a HUGE success! The weather was absolutely beautiful and the Lord couldn't have blessed us with a more gorgeous day! Because of everyone's generousity we raised over $12,000 for the Footprints Ministry! There is no way I can ever thank everyone for all that you did for this tournament. My heart is full of joy as I know that so many NICU families will be blessed because of your participation in this golf tournament!

 

The tournament began with prayer and the golfers were off to their tee boxes. Near lunch time the golfers began to arrive with the score cards back to the clubhouse. The tournament was followed by a BBQ lunch provided by the Robert Trent Jones golf course. The golfers were blessed by our incredible speaker Beau Daniel, whose son had been in the NICU over 100 days. He shared his family's NICU journey and talked about why it is so important to have the Footprints Ministry in the NICU.

 

This day could not have been any better! The Lord always accomplishes so much more than we could ever ask or dream for! Thank you Lord for the amazing work you accomplish through this ministry! To God be the glory!

 

"Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think." Ephesians 3:20
